The Arab Spring began & ended with Tunisia. In a region beset by brutal repression, humanitarian disasters, & civil war, Tunisia`s Jasmine Revolution alone gave way to a peaceful transition to a functioning democracy. Within four short years, Tunisians passed a progressive constitution, held fair parliamentary elections, & ushered in the country`s first-ever democratically elected president. But did Tunisia simply avoid the misfortunes that befell its neighbors, or were there particular features that set the country apart & made it a special case? In Tunisia: An Arab Anomaly, Safwan M. Masri explores the factors that have shaped the country`s exceptional experience. He traces Tunisia`s history of reform in the realms of education, religion, & women`s rights, arguing that the seeds for today`s relatively liberal & democratic society were planted as far back as the middle of the nineteenth century. Masri argues that Tunisia stands out less as a model that can be replicated in other Arab countries, but rather as an anomaly, as its history of reformism set it on a separate trajectory from the rest of the region. The narrative explores notions of identity, the relationship between Islam & society, & the hegemonic role of religion in shaping educational, social, & political agendas across the Arab region. Based on interviews with dozens of experts, leaders, activists, & ordinary citizens, & a synthesis of a rich body of knowledge, Masri provides a sensitive, often personal, account that is critical for understanding not only Tunisia but also the broader Arab world. ...

” Tunnels, Towers & Temples” takes a sideways look at London, revealing the hidden stories, curious histories & sometimes comic assocations behind dozens of often quite familiar places. Through their stories, the author reveals a strange side of London most people never come to know, even though they walk its streets every day & take much of what they see entirely for granted. Typical examples include extensive networks of tunnels running beneath high street pavements, secret transport & signalling networks crisscrossing the capital, genuine oddities such as streetlamps powered by sewer gas, a street where you can legally drive on the right, a future Russian Tsar working incognito in a British naval dockyard, even a Nazi memorial sited among the real heroes & adventurers of the British Empire.
