Zusammenfassung
Philip Robins traces Jordan's political history from pre-Independence to the present day. Despite a succession of wars and economic uncertainty, the 1970s and 1980s were relatively prosperous years. However, the death of Hussein and recent tensions in the region have renewed uncertainty. This is an incisive account, compellingly told.
