Overview:
In just 18 short days, the young protesters in Cairo's Tahrir Square upended global politics. Not even three weeks after the peaceful demonstrations began, not even two weeks after pro-government thugs charged into the square on camels and horses to force them out, one of the most entrenched leaders in the Middle East and a longtime U.S. ally, Hosni Mubarak, was gone—and autocratic leaders from Morocco to Bahrain were feeling the heat.
"Revolution in the Arab World [allows] readers who are fascinated with current events but have no time or inclination to follow in real time both to experience the stream and to benefit from intelligent commentary while the lava of Middle East revolution is still flowing.... Delightful ... lively ... fascinating." — Anne-Marie Slaughter, NPR.org
"Anyone interested in understanding the Arab revolutions should read it." —American Diplomacy
"Fascinating.... The heart-pounding, street-level reporting by Ashraf Khalil and Blake Hounshell ... truly transports.... Revolution in the Arab World succeeds in its most fundamental task: capturing the Arab Spring largely as it happened." — Bookforum
"It took 18 days for Egyptian protesters to topple Hosni Mubarak's 30-year regime; it took about 10 days for the editors at Foreign Policy to publish a 70,000-word ebook about the revolution." — Nieman Journalism Lab
ENJOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
