This book is dedicated to Gregory Dees, whose untimely and unexpected passing left us very saddened. Gregory, who was credited as the father of social entrepreneurship, had graciously agreed to write the Foreword to this book, and we were really shocked, beyond words can convey, by the news of his passing away on 20 December 2013. We also dedicate this book to our fellow citizens of the Middle East and invite them to continue in steering their efforts in taking social entrepreneurship forward in a region where it is desperately needed.
