Come with Scott Parker, America's leading expert on the Arab
Psyche, as he leads you through the murky world of Islamic
extremism in his search for the soul of Egypt. Along the way, he is
forced to serve as an intermediary between the American Embassy in
Cairo and the Muslim Brotherhood, the world's largest Islamic
fundamentalist group. To the dismay of both, he uses this unwelcome
role to pursue his own ideas for fighting terror and extremism with
curious and unpredictable results. If Scott glories in the Egyptian
environment, his wife, Constance, does not. She finds Egypt
abhorrent, the Embassy parties boring, and her husband remote.
Lonely and longing for the simple purity of her rural Nebraska
childhood, she throws herself into Christian feminism with the help
of Gloria Goldensickle, an Israeli psychoanalyst who dreams of
peace through love. Scott's journey provides the reader with an
insider's view of Islamic extremism, Arab security services, and
American embassies abroad. Readers should also find the clash of
American and Middle Eastern customs to be amusing if not
frightening.
