The Arab World emphatically represents an artifact from another era; while not entirely sugar-coating his subject matter, Stewart offers a benign, gauzy, patronizing approach that would gag even the most euphemistic writers today. For example, he suggests that a Western visitor to the Arabic-speaking countries enters “the realm of Aladdin and Ali Baba. The people remind him of his illustrated Bible.” One encounters little of this sentimentality in the age of Al-Qaeda. सबसे रोचक यह है कि इस पुस्तक से यह प्रदर्शित होता है कि किस प्रकार एक प्रमुख विश्लेषक भी बडे चित्र को पढने में गलती कर बैठता है।
