Review Quotes:
"Middle Power in the Middle East is arguably the best book to date on Canada's complicated relations with this volatile region. Clearly written and convincingly argued, this book examines how relations with the United States, the need to be perceived as a reliable ally, diaspora and election politics, and the individual preferences of prime ministers interact to shape Canada's foreign and defence polices in the Middle East. Middle Power in the Middle East is essential reading."
- Michael Molloy, Former Ambassador of Canada to Jordan
