Il est l'auteur d'ouvrages influents tels que "Clash of Fundamentalisms: Crusades, Jihads and Modernity", "Bush in Babylon" et "The Duel", qui examinent la politique mondiale, l'impérialisme et les conflits idéologiques. Ses écrits sont largement reconnus pour leur analyse incisive des enjeux géopolitiques contemporains, en particulier concernant le Moyen-Orient et l'Asie du Sud.
