Publisher's Synopsis

Was 'modernity' in the Middle East imported piecemeal from the West? Did Ottoman society really consist of islands of sophistication in a sea of tribal conservatism, as has often been claimed? This book aims to change our understanding of the relationship between East, West and modernity.
