Description

Explore the deep history of Kuwait through this scholarly work from Routledge. While many view this Arabian state solely through the lens of oil wealth, this book provides a much broader perspective. It examines the geological and archaeological foundations that shaped the region long before the discovery of petroleum. Originally published in 1972, this edition offers a look at how newfound material wealth impacts a nation with a remote past and a strong Islamic background. You will learn about the country's long struggle for survival among powerful neighbors and its ambitious efforts toward industrial and economic development. It is a valuable resource for those interested in the social sciences, anthropology, and the historical evolution of the Middle East.
