Egypt on the Brink

Egypt on the Brink

by Tarek Osman

  • HISTORY
  • 2011
  • PAPER
  • 300 PAGES

Osman examines Egypt's central role in the development of the two crucial movements of the period, Arab nationalism and radical Islam; the increasingly contentious relationship between Muslims and Christians; and perhaps most important of all, the rift between the cosmopolitan elite and the mass of the undereducated and underemployed population, more than half of whom are aged under thirty.  (EGY371, $15.00)
