Hawass: Use him of lose him

Commenting in Science on the return of Dr Zahi Hawasss as Egypt's Antiquities Minister, National Geographic archaeologist Fredrik Hiebert says: "You can lose him or you can use him. He turned tourism into the number one industry for the country. You can say he's an egomaniac who doesn't let others speak, but he has put Egyptian archaeology on the front pages of newspapers around the world."
