520    The author examines in detail the issues most critical to 
       the region's future. He describes oil as the current, most
       important export to the outside world from the Middle East
       but warns that technology will eventually make it obsolete,
       leaving those who depend solely on oil revenues with a 
       bleak future. The three factors that could most help 
       transform the Middle East, according to Lewis, are Turkey,
       Israel, and women. He also argues that there is enough in 
       the traditional culture of Islam on the one hand and the 
       modern experience of the Muslim peoples on the other to 
       provide the basis for an advance toward freedom in the 
       true sense of that word and to achieve the social, 
       cultural, and scientific changes necessary to bring the 
       Middle East into line with the developed countries of both
       West and East.
