The renowned biologist and humanist presents vivid observations of the ancient civilisations, archaeological wonders, and living cultures that define the Middle East, illustrated with over 50 photographs taken by the author himself. With the authority of a trained scientist and the curiosity of a seasoned traveller, Huxley illuminates the contrasts between the region's timeless monuments and its rapidly changing modern societies. The work stands as a unique document of mid-twentieth-century Middle Eastern life, offering both scholarly insight and personal reflection in equal measure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888027119835,"sku":"2026200007016-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/48131071-5343-496f-bdfb-8e8bcded2d83.png?v=1781753164","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007016-secondhand-from-an-antique-land-ancient-and-modern-in-the-middle-east","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
