    Summary
    Banner headlines testify to the increased awareness of environmental problems in the Middle East and to the urgency of solving them. Whether the concern is with the dumping of toxic waste in Arab countries or with the need for Islamic solutions to prevent ecological disaster, Middle Eastern newspapers are raising awareness of environmental issues and of the potential ill effects they can have throughout the region. Such awareness underscores the timeliness of this book. Written by leading scholars in their own particular fields, the 18 essays in this book represent some of the deepest and most advanced thinking on the subject of the Middle Eastern environment. Bringing together subjects as diverse as the Oslo agreement, nuclear weapons in Israel, and Islamic development agendas in sub-Saharan Africa

    History and Faith in the Middle East
    The world’s crossroads, the Middle East is the most contested and controversial area on Earth. It is also the cradle of the first great civilizations in Mesopotamia and Egypt and can be said to have given birth to human striving—and strife. Through photographs, maps, and the writings of highly respected authors, this book details the historical, political, cultural, and religious forces that have shaped the region and unravels for readers the enigma that is the Middle East. Beginning with the prehistoric civilizations of the fertile crescent and continuing through the conflicts of the 20th and 21st centuries, the first section of the book distills the Middle East’s sweeping, often turbulent history. From the Hittites to Alexander the Great, from the Romans to the Crusaders, from the Ottomans to the Imperialists, the Middle East’s rich tapestry of influences and identities is described with new critical insights. The book’s second section is devoted to the Middle East’s three great faiths, examining in depth the impact of Muslim, Jewish, and Christian beliefs on history and daily life in the Middle East.

    General summary Near East Region
    The Near East region (grouping the countries represented in the FAO Regional Office for the Near East) extends from the Atlantic Ocean (Mauritania and Morocco) in the west to Pakistan and Kyrgyzstan in the east and from Turkey and Kyrgyzstan in the north to Somalia in the south. It falls between longitudes 17° west and 80° east and latitudes 43° north and 2° south. In May 1996, it comprised 29 countries with a total area of 18.5 million km², which is about 14% of the total area of the world (including the interior lakes). For the purpose of this study, the 29 countries have been grouped in five sub-regions based primarily on geographic conditions and, as far as possible, on hydro-climatic homogeneity. These subregions, presented in Figure 1 , are here referred to as Maghreb (Algeria, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Tunisia), North-eastern Africa (Djibouti, Egypt, Somalia, Sudan), Arabian Peninsula (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Yemen), Middle East (Cyprus, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Syria, Turkey) and Central Asia (Afghanistan, Iran, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan). This section briefly presents the particularities which can be observed at national and regional level, as well as trends which emerge from the information which was collected. The section is divided into the following sub-sections:

    http://www.lib.utah.edu/information/LClong.html
    How Call Numbers Work Books are shelved in alpha-numeric order and every book must be assigned a unique number. There are three main sections to a call number:
    CLASS NUMBER
    Everything before the first letter is the Class Number. It indicates the subject area covered by the book, and should be read as a whole number. For instance, GB105 is larger than GB103.5
    BOOK NUMBER (sometimes called a Cutter number)
    The first letter indicates the start of the Book Number. It helps distinguish different books on the same subject and is usually based on the author's name and/or title of the book. Read these numbers one digit at a time. For instance, .R2 is larger than .R19
    DATE OF EDITION
    If two books on the same subject are written by authors of the same name and have the same title (highly unlikely) a date of edition may prove the distinguishing factor.
    GB GB GB GB GB GB (.25 is smaller than .265, which is smaller than .28 which is smaller than .4. We use the classification system used at the Library of Congress (LC) which arranges books by their major subject. The list below shows the main areas of academic interest. Most general collection books are in the Stacks (new, outer building) on Levels One and Two.

    The Centre for Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies: Activities
    The Middle Centre was established in 1988 to provide a focus and promote interdepartmental co-operation among the Middle East scholars of the University. It does this, among other ways, by having guest lectures as well as inviting guest professors or visiting researchers. For local users, the Centre also has a specialist library on Middle Eastern topics, containing among other items a large collection of publications and sources for the history and society of the Sudan.
    Visiting Researchers
    The Centre welcomes a number of visiting scholars who come for anything from a few days to several weeks to consult with colleagues and study the source collections at Bergen and the Centre. Among those who visited us in 1999-2000 were,
    • Zahra Kamalkhani (Anthropology, Iran)
