With both an insider's affection and an outsider's perspective, he paints a richer, more subtle portrait of the region through miniprofiles of the people, groups and agencies (big and small) that influence daily Arab life--Hizballah, al-Jazeera, Saudi clerics and an influential Lebanese chef, among others.
