Reviews
This book is extremely rich with facts, history, and contemporary insight, but although it promises to be both academic and accessible, it is more the former. One is tempted to read it with a highlighter, not a bookmark. . . . If you want to understand the rise and evolution of Hezbollah from an Islamic resistance movement to its role as a governing force in Lebanon, this is a good place to start. * New York Journal of Books *
[A] brief, compact, comprehensive guide. . . . .Recommended. General readers, lower-division undergraduates. * Choice *
