Over the last few years, with soaring oil prices, the Middle East countries have been booming and as with every other countries in the world, it is unfair to sum it up by labeling them as an entity and even worse, as "terrorist zone or home". Melissa is great in that way, she directs our attention to how each country differs from one another and how as a whole they have also been mislabeled by the mass media and news reports in America. The readers get the idea that she's fair in her assessment of the region as a whole. That's what I truly like about her books. We don't need another reinforcement of our misinformation. We need to understand why the world is the way it is so that current conflicts can be resolved without much more bloodshed. Without a clear understanding of the underlying motivation of each country, that is almost impossible!
