"This book is not only for specialist readers with a specific academic interest; it may also give general readers interested in Syria a valuable overview of some of the complexities of Syrian border issues. ... It is perhaps the first book to provide a truly knowledgeable overview of the subject, both historically and at the present time. ... this book provides a much-needed overview of Syrian border issues, and is recommended reading for anyone interested in the topic."
