What Went Wrong?: Approaches to the Modern History of the Middle East

Bernard Lewis (Cleveland E. Dodge Professor Emeritus of Near Eastern Studies, Princeton University, USA)

Why did the most advanced civilization in the world lose its power and fall under the domination of others? This book examines how Middle Easterners responded to Western challenges in war, technology, sciences, religion, gender relations and other areas between the 18th and 20th centuries. It reviews the different ways in which the question of what went wrong has been formulated, the various diagnoses of what ails the Middle East, and the prescriptions for its cure.
