“Qatar has been in the news because of the World Cup, but this book is not just for people interested in football. It’s about the growing importance of this little state which I knew a little bit about, but not nearly enough. It’s about what’s gone on there. I won’t use the word corruption—I’ll let readers decide for themselves—but Qatar is a very important access point in the Middle East, from which money flows in and out around the world. He interviews people around the country and looks at its interrelationship with the rest of the Middle East and the world. It’s a really fascinating read.”
