520    For over a decade the Middle East has monopolized news 
       headlines in the West. Journalists and commentators 
       regularly speculate that the region's turmoil may stem 
       from the psychological momentum of its cultural traditions
       or of a "tribal" or "fatalistic" mentality. Yet few 
       studies of the region's cultural psychology have provided 
       a critical synthesis of psychological research on Middle 
       Eastern societies. Drawing on autobiographies, literary 
       works, ethnographic accounts, and life-history interviews,
       The Middle East: A Cultural Psychology offers the first 
       comprehensive summary of psychological writings on the 
       region, reviewing works by psychologists, anthropologists,
       and sociologists that have been written in English, Arabic,
       and French. Rejecting stereotypical descriptions of the 
       "Arab mind" or "Muslim mentality," Gary Gregg adopts a 
       life-span-development framework, examining influences on 
       development in infancy, early childhood, late childhood, 
       and adolescence, as well as on identity formation in early
       and mature adulthood. He views patterns of development in 
       the context of recent work in cultural psychology, and 
       compares Middle Eastern patterns less with Western middle-
       class norms than with those described for the region's 
       neighbors: Hindu India, sub-Saharan Africa, and the 
       Mediterranean shore of Europe. The research presented in 
       this volume overwhelmingly suggests that the region's 
       strife stems much less from a stubborn adherence to 
       tradition and resistance to modernity than from widespread
       frustration with broken promises of modernization-with the
       slow and halting pace of economic progress and 
       democratization. A sophisticated account of the Middle 
       East's cultural psychology, The Middle East provides 
       students, researchers, policy makers, and all those 
       interested in the culture and psychology of the region 
       with invaluable insight into the lives, families, and 
       social relationships of Middle Easterners as they struggle
       to reconcile the lure of Westernized lifestyles with 
       traditional values. Book jacket.
