This is the first intellectual biography of the man whose influence has affected perceptions of the modern Middle East for several decades. The book traces Hourani’s interaction with the Middle East from his search as a young student born in Manchester for his Middle East identity to his attempt as a young British official in the Arab world to explain the Palestinian dilemma to the British and American governments.
