"Mapping the Fault Lines is an invaluable guide to the complex relationship between the United States and Turkey. By weaving together deft interpretation of the historical roots of the relationship with keen analysis of recent developments, Kanat deepens our understanding of why the U.S.-Turkey partnership is at once resilient and durable, yet also chronically troubled. * Charles A. Kupchan, Professor, Georgetown University and Council on Foreign Relations, USA * Mapping the Fault Lines"" is a pivotal work in the study of the U.S.-Turkey relationship, an area of study which has profound and practical importance for U.S. foreign policy but which does not receive the attention it deserves. The book illuminates the intricate blend of strengths and weaknesses that characterize the complex partnership between Ankara and Washington. In an era where American leadership faces dangerous new challenges, ""Mapping the Fault Lines"" provides us with the guide we need not just to better US-Turkish relations but also to better ties with other regional powers, especially when their objectives might diverge from our own on some issues. With his exceptional expertise, insight, and background, Kilic Kanat is indisputably the most competent authority to guide us on this issue. * Michael Doran Senior Fellow and Director, Hudson Institute, USA *"
