BOOK REVIEW: Faith and Power (Religion and Politics in the Middle East)

Abstract

Bernard Lewis is a Middle East expert who knows the region very well and makes deep analyses about it. As a former military intelligence officer, he is one of the important figures who determine and guide America's policies related to the Middle East. In his book Faith and Power, which includes a compilation of some of his articles and speeches that have not been published in English before, published by Oxford University Press Inc. in 2010 and printed in Turkish in 2017, he interprets the Middle East in the axis of Religion and Politics.
