Inhaltsangabe

The Jerusalem Post -"In this excellent historical resume, a dozen British,
American and Israeli scholars, including the editors, examine Britain"s
relations with Egypt and the Arab league, its miscalculations in Iraq and
Jordan and its inability to resolve the Palestinian question."
Imperial and Commonwealth History-" As a whole, Cohen and Kolisky"s Demise
of the British Empire in the Middle East provides a penetrating set of
essays which throw much-needed light on the reasons for Britain"s fall from
pre-eminence in the ten years following the end of the Second World war."
MESA Bulletin 33, 1999
"The collection covers old ground, but it does so with new documentary
material and some interesting interpretations."
Twentieth Century British History- " It offers a wide-ranging and
informative collection of articles which should prove of interest to
readers of British and Middle Eastern history, politics and economics.
