All not just Academia,

Went to Jarir last night to browse the miniscule selection of books (no shock there), and came across a magazine called Tiime Out Qatar, a very informative read giving a non biased report on all clubs/bars and restaraunts to be frequented here in Doha.
The mag also covers places to go, tour groups etc etc etc and is well worth the read.
Ok time to get to the point, in the rear of the magazine is a list of books not only based on Qatar its history religion etc etc but also any major book that has a mention of Qatar, academia could be a good place for you to look, failing that I will post on tomorrow the names and authors if you cant get a hold of the magazine.

We came we saw we were Qatarized
