Title: So , what went wrong..
Product review: As a middle eastern I'd say that Bernard Lewis was not off in his depiction of the culture of the middle east. But what I take away from this book having read it once , is the fall of the ottoman empire is due in part to the lack of watches and clocks. I am being silly , but really a whole chapter dedicated to the measurement of time and space , yet no analysis, no in-depth deconstruction of the culture that might lead you to answer the question: "What went wrong".Don't be fooled by the title. I read the whole book at Chapters and I am glad I didn't buy it. This is one book , I won't have to read a second time.
