A classic one volume hisyory of Turkey that has been in print since 1961, The Emergence of Modern Turkey, Third EdDition covers the emergence of a secular, democratic republic from an Islamic Empire. In a new chapter, Lewis discusses the origins of the book in the Cold War Era and events that have taken place since its writing, including Turkey's emergence as a decidedly Western-oriented power despite internal opposition from religious fundamentalists and
Islamic parties, its inclusion in NATO and the European Union, the politically divisive issue of Kurdish violence and ethnic nationalism, and its involvement in the politics of the Middle East.

Praise for the previous edition<br> "No one has done more to examine the interactions of the West and the Middle East.Lewis' book will remain a landmark in the study of the modern Middle East."--Foreign Affairs<br> "An authoritative contribution by a distinguished historian which fills a long-existing need for an interpretive study of developments in Turkey during the last two centuries."--American Historical Review<br> "Equally valuable for the scholar planning to explore specific lines of research, and for the teacher and journalist who have to explain and analyze developments in modern Turkey."--The Economist<br> "The author has mobilized his unrivaled knowledge of both Turkish and Western sources to assess the significance of the Ataturk revolution and provide an essential background for the formation of judgments about contemporary Turkey's problems and prospects."--The Times Literary Supplement<br>
