These bibliographies,
compiled by Dr. Bernard Reich and Dr. Sanford Silverburg, contribute over 4,400 entries
most of which have been published after 1980. The materials are, for the most part,
English-language but include many entries in other Western European languages, such as
French and German, and fewer in the Middle East languages of Arabic, Hebrew, and Turkish.
A special effort was made to be as inclusive as possible on popular topics such as the
Salman Rushdie affair and women in the Arab world. This bibliography was compiled with the
aim of providing diverse topics of interest dealing with the region of the Middle East,
its people, and its cultures to a wide range of interested people, from scholars to
laypeople.Theses
