Title: What Went Wrong? This Book f.e.
Product review: In 1999 Professor Lewis held a series of three lectures in Vienna and the transcripts form the backbone of this book. It contains some interesting details about the impression Ottoman Turkey got from its contacts with the West and its response. It is a story of failed reforms and some thoughts about the different perspective the Muslim world has in measuring time and distance.What is not there is the answer to the question put in the title. What went wrong? No idea, but hey, the Muslim world asks this question too. So if you are not particularly interested in Ottoman Turkey and its effort to reform itself better buy another book
