For those in the Wasington, DC area, you might be interested in hearing Robert Lacey talking about his new book, Inside the Kingdom: Kings, Clerics, Modernists, Terrorists, and the Struggle for Saudi Arabia at 7:00 PM on Monday, at the Politics & Prose bookstore, 5015 Connecticut Ave.
I’ve not yet received my review copy of the book [Note to FTC*: This is a disclaimer!] but will review it as soon as I finish it.
*The US Federal Trade Commission has proposed ‘rules’ that require all bloggers (among many, many others) to clearly state that they have received something of value from publishers and the like if they then write about that thing. Thus, the pre-emptive disclosure.

Note to FTC: Don’t you have something better to do than bully bloggers with pointless regulations?
