For those who study Lebanon, I so strongly recommend Niqula Nasif's Al-Maktab Ath-Thani: Hakim Fi Adh-Dhill (Mukhtarat, 2006). The writer is a right-wing analyst (formerly for An-Nahar and currently with Al-Akhbar) who knows inside Lebanese politics more than probably anybody. This meticulously researched book is one of the most interesting (in 700 pages) books on Lebanon that I have read in years.
