The fifth in the CAIW series, this title reflects 50 years of
experience of Cambridge (UK)-based World of Information, which
since 1975 has followed the region's politics and economics. In the
period following the Second World War, Saudi Arabia - a curious
fusion of medieval theocracy, unruly dictatorship and extrovert
wealth - has been called a country of 'superlatives.' The
modernisation of the Kingdom's oil industry has been a smooth
process: its oilfields are highly sophisticated. However, social
modernisation has not kept pace. 'Reform', long a preoccupation
among the Peninsula's leaders does not necessarily go hand in hand
with religion.
