Eighty years have passed since Mustafa Kemal Ataturk founded the
Turkish Republic out of the ruins of the Ottoman Empire and set it
on the path of modernisation. He was determined that his country
should be accepted as a member of the family of civilised nations.
Today Turkey is a rapidly developing country, an emergent market
and a medium-sized regional power with the second strongest army in
NATO. It is an open country which attracts millions of tourists,
thousands of foreign businessmen and hundreds of researchers. They
enjoy Turkish hospitality and experience its rich landscape and
history, but many find it hard to form an overall picture of the
country. In this sequel to his acclaimed biography of Ataturk,
Andrew Mango provides such an overall portrait, tracing the
republic's development since the death of its founder and bringing
to life the Turkish people and their vibrant society. The Turks
Today interprets the latest academic research for a broader
audience, making this highly readable book the authoritative work
on modern Turkey.
