The book spends most if the pages reviewing working class protests in the West during XVIII, XIX and XX centuries and then using that information to extrapolate feasible scenarios for the Middle East after the Arab spring. Two main aspects drive my 2star rating: I was expecting more of an account of what happened and background on the actual countries rather than background on past protests in other region (the West), which makes the book leave me with the impression it doesnt really talk about Egypt, Tunissia or Libya but about XIX cent. workers in the UK; second, maybe rated to my lack of experience reading political science, but I have the impression that some of the main conclussions are more the sheer opinion of the author than they derive from the data and history. In any case, it's a short and interesting read that brings a framework and provides important concepts to get you thinking about the near future of one of the most politically hot regions of the world.

so many reasons it's kitchy and silly but it's an easy hook. fun read.

beautifully written but a bit plodding. lots of description and not a lot of action.
