This book was undertaken with the purpose of determining the degree of Soviet involvement in the Middle East crisis.

This 1977 book was undertaken with the purpose of determining the degree of Soviet involvement in the Middle East crisis. Dr Golan examines in minute detail the Soviet interests in the region and the relationship that Soviets had with the Arab states and the Palestinians.This 1977 book was undertaken with the purpose of determining the degree of Soviet involvement in the Middle East crisis, from the expulsion of the Soviet advisers from Egypt in 1972, through the planning stage of the war and the war itself, up to the disengagement agreements which in fact finally brought the war to a close. Dr Golan first investigates Soviet interests in the region, particularly in connection with the Arab–Israeli conflict, and the relationships of these regional interests - be they strategic, political, economic or ideological - to Soviet global interests. There follows a detailed study of Soviet policy towards the Middle East crisis as seen through Soviet relations with the Arab states and the Palestinians, Soviet propaganda to the Arab world, Soviet–American relations, Soviet domestic and international problems related to Middle East policy, and, more specifically, the Soviet attitude towards a settlement of the Arab–Israeli conflict.
