Beginning in early 2011 he was a regular contributor to the ''The Daily Mail'', a British newspaper〔(The Daily Mail: John R.

He has also appeared on television networks such as CNN〔(John R. Bradley on CNN discussing the death of Saudi King Fahd )〕 and Fox News.〔(John R.

John R Bradley )〕 According to an article published in May 2015 by Vice magazine, Bradley "has remov() himself from public life due to ill health,"〔http://www.vice.com/read/behind-the-rise-in-hijab-porn〕 a statement that confirms an earlier posting by Bradley himself on his personal website.〔https://johnrbradley.wordpress.com/8-biography/〕 ==Career== Bradley is best known for his 2008 book ''Inside Egypt'' which accurately predicted the Egyptian uprising of January 2011 that ousted dictator Hosni Mubarak. In May 2011, Fareed Zakaria selected ''Inside Egypt'' as his "Book of the Week" on his GPS show: “(This) book… in a strikingly prescient way… foretold the January revolution. (It) was banned by Mubarak’s regime — and understandably so! If you want to understand how Egypt got to this crossroads, read this book.”〔(CNN World. Global Public Square. Book of the Week: Banned by Mubarak regime ) May 23rd, 2011〕 For two and a half years beginning June 2001, he worked as a news editor and managing editor for the English-language daily newspaper ''Arab News'' in Saudi Arabia. Unlike other journalists until that time he was able to travel most of the country without a minder.〔>〕 Based on his experiences he wrote the book ''Saudi Arabia Exposed: Inside a Kingdom in Crisis''. The book received considerable praise, with for example the New York Times review saying it provides "a highly informed, temperate and understanding account" of the country.〔http://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/17/books/17grim.html?_r=0〕 Bradley lectured on the Middle East at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy〔(Saudi Monarchy: Part of the Problem or Part of the Solution? ) Featuring John R. Bradley and Rachel Bronson July 7, 2005〕 and Intelligence Squared in London.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John R. Bradley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
