Dr Gwyn Rowley
Room number: Telephone (UK): Telephone (International): Email: G.Rowley@Sheffield.ac.uk
A rich and varied career commenced with appointment to a lectureship in Sheffield, subsequently being promoted to Senior Lecturer then Reader. Visiting positions have included periods at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Clark University, Harvard University, the Universities of Toronto, McMaster, Manitoba and Wilfred Laurier. Dr Rowley is also a Peabody Fellow at Harvard. He is currently an external examiner at Universities within the UK, Ireland and the Middle East. City and town centres; Out-of-centre retailing; Middle East; Israeli settlements in the Occupied Territories; Competition over land and water in Palestine; The Islamic World. Inner city research within the UK and North America, retail systems and competitions over land and natural resources within the Middle East, including the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the broader Islamic cultural realm. Two matters are of particular interest at the present time. In Britain we focus upon the proceeding developments within and about the established Central Business Districts and the potential generative effects of the larger out-of-town retail agglomerations, as at Meadowhall, Sheffield, upon adjacent brownfield sites. Within the Middle East the continuing Israeli irredentist activities about Jerusalem and the Occupied Territories in general provide a specific focus of our proceeding studies.

    While tensions continue to rise in Iraq and surrounding countries, there is a heightened curiosity worldwide for definitive, balanced, and timely information about the Middle East. This concise and distinctive volume provides a fascinating, in-depth look at the driving forces that have led to acts of violence, religious fervor, and costly wars in this hostile territory and lends valuable insight into the present situation. National Geographic Atlas of the Middle East contains newly researched and updated maps illustrating the diverse issues of the region today. Boundary and territorial disputes, the uneven distribution of natural resources, and booming population pressures are detailed in stunning visual explanations. Other regional thematic maps elaborate on questions surrounding religion, ethnic and linguistic groups, oil, water, agriculture, industry, trade, international corporations, and military forces. The complex history of the Middle East is explored through maps devoted to topics that include the rise and falls of empires, civilizations, major conflicts, holy sites, and various other significant events that have shaped the region.

    History and Faith in the Middle East
    The world’s crossroads, the Middle East is the most contested and controversial area on Earth. It is also the cradle of the first great civilizations in Mesopotamia and Egypt and can be said to have given birth to human striving—and strife. Through photographs, maps, and the writings of highly respected authors, this book details the historical, political, cultural, and religious forces that have shaped the region and unravels for readers the enigma that is the Middle East. Beginning with the prehistoric civilizations of the fertile crescent and continuing through the conflicts of the 20th and 21st centuries, the first section of the book distills the Middle East’s sweeping, often turbulent history. From the Hittites to Alexander the Great, from the Romans to the Crusaders, from the Ottomans to the Imperialists, the Middle East’s rich tapestry of influences and identities is described with new critical insights. The book’s second section is devoted to the Middle East’s three great faiths, examining in depth the impact of Muslim, Jewish, and Christian beliefs on history and daily life in the Middle East.

    Small rivers are important to the region b/c
    a. there are no large rivers in the are b. only small rivers deposit rich soil when they flood c. rivers are the major source of water in the region d. rivers are the main means of transportation in the are Answer Amanda: Yes, there ARE far more smaller rivers and streams than the larger, more familiar, and voluminous true rivers that usually empty into the ocean at final journey's end. However, in the Middle East, the larger rivers are the Tigris, and Euphrates. These both rise in Turkey, flow through Syria, emptying as a single stream at the border of Iraq and Iran; into the Persian Gulf. The Jordan is probably the most famous, but by far a lesser water conduit from Mt. Hermon in Lebanon to the Dead Sea.
