The Invisible Arab: The Promise and Peril of the Arab Revolutions
Review Date: 6/25/2020


The book is very enlightening to the Revolutions we are seeing today. It is an insight from someone who was there, and knows the history. You will understand the frustrations of the Arab spring from a different angle than you've seen on CNN or the nightly news.
