This work was originally published in 1966. Long regarded as a
classic, this volume argues that Afghani and 'Abduh should be
considered subverters rather than reformers of Islam. It addresses
the spread of concealed unbelief and atheism in Muslim society
towards the end of the nineteenth century, and shows how both
Afghani and 'Abduh, while making a show of their piety, really held
esoteric beliefs quite incompatible with orthodox and traditional
Islam.
First Published in 2005. This book constitutes the continuation and
complement of a work, The Chatham House Version and Other
Middle-Eastern Studies, published in 1970. Both works are concerned
with certain themes prominent in recent middle-eastern history,
namely the influence of great-power, and particularly British
policies in the region; the character of middle-eastern, and
particularly Arab, politics and political thought during the last
hundred years or so; and the fate of so-called minorities, and
particularly the Jews of the Arab world, caught as they were in the
cross-fire of antagonistic ideologies and of international
conflicts.
Except for Israel, the Middle East remains largely untouched by the
democratic revolution that swept across Eastern Europe and the
former USSR. This book aims to explain and analyze the reasons why
despotism or religious fundamentalism continue to control the
Middle Eastern countries.

First Published in 1980. The events which took place in Iran during
the time of original publication took the world by surprise. A
little reflection however will suggest that they were not
inexplicable prodigies. They constitute rather a manifestation,
albeit sudden and astonishing, of a social, intellectual and
political crisis in the throes of which Iran has found itself. The
eleven studies included in this book are devoted to the examination
of one or other aspect of this crisis and aim to clarify the
origins and character of the crisis.

The McMahon-Husayn correspondence has been at the heart of
Anglo-Arab relations since World War I. It aroused great
controversy, particularly over Palestine. Here, it is examined in
historical context to determine why it was so obscure and what lay
in the minds of those who drafted it.
