Arnold presents an objective, informative view of Libya., August 31, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Maverick State: Gaddafi and the New World Order (Cassell Global Issues) (Paperback)
Arnold presents an objective, informative view of Libya that exposes some of the myths and racist portrayals of Libya and President Gaddafi that is so favored in America. An Arab and Muslim desert country of a mere 4 million people that is demonized as a threat to the 270-million people in the world's only super power is brought to life, and Libya's struggle against such overhelming odds provides interesting reading.

The Misunderstood State, January 25, 2000
This review is from: Maverick State: Gaddafi and the New World Order (Cassell Global Issues) (Paperback)
It is sad to see the west ganging on such country that is full of uniqueness. A new refreshing point of view that this book has which may have a positive influence on the North American readers. To build a bridge of communication between the west and the intellectual capital of Libya, the country would have to be given a chance to prove its ability to be more communicative.
