Book excerpt: The volatility of Muslim and Middle Eastern politics has made these topics an overriding preoccupation of world and especially U.S. politics. Perhaps no region of the world has ever so dominated the American public discourse as the Middle East does today. Sources of trouble include militant Islam, Muslims in the West, the Arab-Israeli conflict, the Iraq situation, relations with Saudi Arabia, the price of oil and gas, and U.S. policy toward all these issues. This collection, by one of the foremost experts in the field, presents original insights, accessibly written.--From publisher description.

Book excerpt: EVOLVE OR DIE!All Things Zombie won the Origins Award for Best Miniatures Game in 2005. From then until now, gamers have changed and All Things Zombie has changed with them.************Want a game where all you do is run around the table and kill Zombies? If you do, then All Things Zombie - Evolution is not for you. Think of all the great and not so great Zombie movies and television series. Remember how many Zombies the heroes killed? I'm betting you don't, but I bet you remember how they interacted with other survivors and how they finally overcame the obstacles in their way. In short, you remember the Story.And that's what All Things Zombie - Evolution is all about, the Story; your Story.All Things Zombie - Evolution sweeps you up and sticks you right in the middle of a catastrophic zombie outbreak. Who you are when the outbreak occurs is just as important as where you are. Because unlike other zombie games, where the zombies have been around for a while, you won't be able to tell the humans from the zombies until maybe it's too late. Because it's all happening to you just like it would on Day One. Confusion, chaos, and lack of information are just some of the challenges you'll face when the world starts to crumble. Will you have what it takes to survive the first 30 days? THEN WHAT?All Things Zombie - Evolution starts on the first day of the Outbreak, but then let's you continue your life, building your very own future. It's a game where every detail has been covered, as you first escape the soulless creatures that threaten you, then hunt them down and take back what's yours. On the way you'll find that your most dangerous enemies aren't the zombies, but are your neighbors and sometimes your old friends. Play All Things Zombie - Evolution solo, cooperatively against the game, or head to head against one another. Play it as a one off game or part of an ongoing campaign. Play it on the Tabletop or on the Battle Boards we've included. It doesn't matter which way you play it, as the goal of All Things Zombie - Evolution is to rebuild the world, as you knew it; except maybe this time with you in charge.Inside you'll find: Counters and two 8" x 10" Battle Boards. Three classes - Survivor, Ganger, or Militia, each with different goals and opportunites. Attributes, Skills, and more, that are used to define your Characters and make them unique.A light-book keeping Campaign System to reward you when you do well and punish you when you don't.A variety of Zombies, from the old school Shamblers to Smarties and Ragers.Pre- generated scenarios that can be played alone or played together to build your Story.A fully populated Post-Apocalyptic town for you to adventure in.All this and much more.And we didn't even mention the Werewolves, Aliens or Vampires.All Things Zombie ...Still THE Zombie game.Please note that the maps and counters for this book are printed inside in black and white.
