Author: Robert D. Kaplan
Robert D. Kaplan’s The Loom of Time is a stunning exploration of the Greater Middle East, where lasting stability has often seemed just out of reach but may hold the key to the shifting world order of the twenty-first century.
The Greater Middle East, which Kaplan defines as the vast region between the Mediterranean and China, encompasses much of the Arab world, parts of northern Africa, and Asia, existed for millennia as the crossroads of empires.
The Loom of Time is a challenging, clear-eyed book that promises to reframe our vision of the global twenty-first century.
