2009 | 368 Pages | ISBN: 0520257340 | PDF | 2 MB
For most Americans, September 11, 2001, symbolized the moment when their security was altered. For Middle Eastern and Muslim Americans, 9/11 also ushered in a backlash in the form of hate crimes, discrimination, and a string of devastating government initiatives. This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of the impact of the post-9/11 events on Middle Eastern and Muslim Americans as well as their organized response. Through fieldwork and interviews with community leaders, Anny Bakalian and Mehdi Bozorgmehr show how ethnic organizations mobilized to demonstrate their commitment to the United States while defending their rights and distancing themselves from the terrorists.

Free Download Ulrich Marzolph, "101 Middle Eastern Tales and Their Impact on Western Oral Tradition "
English | ISBN: 0814347738 | 2020 | 624 pages | AZW3 | 2 MB
Against the methodological backdrop of historical and comparative folk narrative research, 101 Middle Eastern Tales and Their Impact on Western Oral Tradition surveys the history, dissemination, and characteristics of over one hundred narratives transmitted to Western tradition from or by the Middle Eastern Muslim literatures (i.e., authored written works in Arabic, Persian, and Ottoman Turkish). For a tale to be included, Ulrich Marzolph considered two criteria: that the tale originates from or at least was transmitted by a Middle Eastern source, and that it was recorded from a Western narrator’s oral performance in the course of the nineteenth or twentieth century. The rationale behind these restrictive definitions is predicated on Marzolph’s main concern with the long-lasting effect that some of the "Oriental" narratives exercised in Western popular tradition―those tales that have withstood the test of time.

Free Download Satellite Monitoring of Water Resources in the Middle East by Amin Shaban
English | EPUB | 2022 | 414 Pages | ISBN : 3031155483 | 153.7 MB
This book presents both updated and new measurements on water resources from selective pilot areas form the Middle East. Demand for water has become very crucial notably in arid and semiarid regions like in the Middle East. The changing climate and the increased population are the most striking challenges on water resources in this region where the largest part of its territory is dry lands and deserts with minimal precipitation and high evaporation rates, and thus, the average per capita of water does not exceed 25 m3/year. This resulted in developing many studies and researches in different Middle East countries to clearly identify and assess the hydrological characteristics of the available water resources and to explore new resources in order to secure balanced water supply/demand.

Free Download The Middle Way: How Three Presidents Shaped America’s Role in the World (Audiobook)
English | February 16, 2021 | ASIN: B08W5FVYN4 | M4B@64 kbps | 8h 9m | 228 MB
Author: Derek Chollet | Narrator: Christopher Grove
When thinking about America’s role in the world, Dwight Eisenhower, George H. W. Bush, and Barack Obama may not seem to have a lot in common. But they do. While divided by background, generation, and political party, they exemplify a distinct and underappreciated tradition of American leadership: The Middle Way. As the scholar and former senior foreign policy official Derek Chollet shows in this deeply researched book, these three presidents took a centrist – and effective – approach to foreign policy. With so many challenges facing the United States, Chollet makes the case for why the nation must reclaim this brand of leadership, learn from it, and champion it.
This timely book blends history, politics, and biography to reveal how these presidents viewed the world and approached the task of leadership. By providing behind-the-scenes accounts and incisive analysis of the foreign policies of Ike, Bush 41, and Obama, The Middle Way offers a fresh way of thinking about American power. It shows how these three leaders defined a foreign policy archetype too often obscured by partisan blinders and historical amnesia. With vivid storytelling and astute insights, Chollet makes a compelling argument for how we should remember the past, think about the present, and approach the policy challenges of tomorrow.

English | ASIN: B0CZ2HWFG9 | 2024 | 10 hours and 23 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 576 MB
Author: Ian Mortimer
Narrator: Ian Mortimer
The essential introduction to the Middle Ages by the bestselling author. We tend to think of the Middle Ages as a dark, backward, and unchanging time characterized by violence, ignorance, and superstition. By contrast, we believe progress arose from science and technological innovation, and that inventions of recent centuries created the modern world. We couldn’t be more wrong. As Ian Mortimer shows in this fascinating book, people’s horizons-their knowledge, experience, and understanding of the world-expanded dramatically. Life was utterly transformed between 1000 and 1600, marking the transition from a warrior-led society to that of Shakespeare. Medieval Horizons provides the perfect primer to the era as a whole. It outlines the enormous cultural changes that took place-from literacy to living standards, inequality, and even the developing sense of self-thereby correcting misconceptions and presenting the period as a revolutionary age of fundamental importance in the development of the Western world.
