Descriere
The government of Egypt banned Inside Egypt in 2008 - the first time a book on Egyptian politics had been banned in the country in decades - and quickly rescinded it after the media firestorm that followed. The book depicts a country on the brink of collapse. Through interviews with ordinary Egyptians and extensive travels in the country, Bradley reveals why Egypt is now vulnerable to another popular uprising that could bring about an Iranian-style theocracy in a country once noted for its plurality and tolerance.
Notă biografică
JOHN R. BRADLEYhas written for The Economist, The Washington Quarterly, The Financial Times, The New Republic, The Times Literary Supplement, Newsweek, and Salon. Fluent in Egyptian Arabic, he is the author of the critically acclaimed Saudi Arabia Exposed: Inside a Kingdom in Crisis. He lives in Singapore.
Caracteristici
Therewas recently a revolution inEgypt which is spreading across the Middle East. This edition features a new chapter commenting on the events of early 2011
The hardcover of this book not only predicted a revolution, it also argued that the timing of the uprising would coincide with the final perceived push to transfer power from President Hosni Mubarak to his widely despised son, Gamal. The uprising is taking place just months before key presidential elections, which were believed by most Egyptians to be the final manoeuvre to introduce hereditary succession. In addition, Bradley stressed that the Muslim Brotherhood, Egypt's largest and most disciplined opposition group, would never instigate such a revolution, but would ride the wave of popular anger once it got underway. That turned out to be precisely the Brotherhood's strategy during the current uprising
In addition to being reviewed widely Bradley has appeared onFox News, Sky News, CNN, the BBC, NPR, VOA, PBS, Air America, and CBS. With four years as a journalist living in Cairo under his belt by publication, he will again emerge as a sought-after expert
