George W. Bush could succeed where Osama bin Laden failed in provoking a clash of civilizations between Islam and the West by launching a "pre-emptive" attack on Iraq.

This is one of the disturbing conclusions to Iraq: In the Eye of the Storm, a wide-ranging and thought provoking book by Middle East expert Dilip Hiro. Hiro looks beyond the spin of the Bush administration and Saddam's Baathist regime to explore Iraq in all its complexity -- from the daily life of its people to its turbulent history and complex regional relations.
