How the conflict between political Islamists and secular-leaning nationalists has shaped the modern Middle East

In Making the Arab World, Fawaz Gerges, one of the world's leading authorities on the Middle East, describes how the clash between pan-Arab nationalism and pan-Islamism has shaped the history of the region from the 1920s to the present. He tells this story through an unprecedented dual biography of Egyptian president and Arab nationalist leader Gamal Abdel Nasser (1918-1970) and another of the twentieth-century Arab world's most influential figures--Sayyid Qutb (1906-1966), a leading member of the Muslim Brotherhood and the father of many branches of radical political Islam. Based on a decade of research, including in-depth interviews with many leading figures in the story, Making the Arab World is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the roots of the turmoil engulfing the Middle East, from civil wars to Al-Qaeda and ISIS.

Beautifully put together book
Format: Hardcover
I love this book. Pages are thick and not too flimsy. Pictures are beautiful and well arranged on the pages. If you love the game and the characters, you'll love this book. I've learned a lot reading it. I highly recommend. Dark Horse knocked it out of the park with this one.

love this book despite its flaws (just like the game)
Format: Hardcover
some of the character and location facts in this book conflict with in-game codex entries. but there are parts of the game that conflict with other parts of the game too LOL so that's not new.

If you love these characters and the lore, you'll love this book!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I've bought every book connected to FFXV that I could find hoping for one that had a lot of focus on the story and characters and they've all been pretty disappointing. This one is exactly what I've always wanted. There are multiple character biographies all through the book, every in-game chapter has a chapter in the book detailing what happened in it with screenshots, lots of pages of concept are that includes art of the characters and not just the monsters like other FFXV books, soundtrack listings, pages about all the DLC, appendices that discuss the gods and a timeline. There are extensive interviews with the staff in the back. There is also a large section on Comrades that talks about upgrading weapons and obtaining sigils if you're wanting that. If you only get one book about FFXV, get this one. This book is a hardcover.
