Review :
'unbiased and thoughtful approach to a delicate subject' Die Welt des Islams 'Hopwood writes well about the Middle East as a theatre of European fantasy and he has fine material on which to draw.' The Independent '..a fascinating study of a hitherto neglected topic...This book is an important contribution to the social history of empire in the Middle East and to the understanding of the contemporary Euro-Arab relationship' The Middle East 'a contribution to the historical sociology of sex and to the history of the Middle East.' Bulletin of the School of Oriental & African Studies 'a very good read.' Asian Affairs 'a most entertaining book that introduces to its reader a number of fascinating figures' Al-Ahram Weekly 'Although entertaining the general effect of the work is academic...has some wonderful snippets.' Hali '[Hopwood] ... offers a nuanced interpretation of his individual subjects ... endeavouring to avoid sweeping statements which tend to obscure the sincerity of some of these individuals or deny the efforts made by them to arrive at a better understanding of Middle Eastern culture.' Journal of Contemporary History
