- The author spent more than a decade researching and writing this book, extending to nearly 500 pages. Drawing on field research and extensive interviews, with activists, policymakers and primary sources, it offers meticulously researched analysis of the modern histories of both the Arab nationalist and the Islamist movements. The book entailed completion of a lengthy period of data collection to reveal the full sweep of a fundamental conflict fought throughout the Middle East over the past seventy years between a secular-leaning authoritarian nationalism and a theocratic irredentism.
