Description - The Israel Arab Reader by Walter Laqueur

In print for nearly half a century, and now in its eighth edition, The Israel-Arab Reader is an authoritative guide to more than a century of conflict in the Middle East. It covers the full spectrum of a violent and checkered history--from the origins of Zionism and Arab nationalism, through the struggles surrounding Israel's independence in 1948, the wars and hostilities characterizing the following decades, and the long diplomatic process and many peace intiatives, and up to the most recent developments.

Arranged chronologically and without bias by two veteran historians of the Middle East, this comprehensive reference brings together speeches, letters, articles, and reports involving all the major interests in the area. The eighth edition features a new introduction as well as a large new section--more than 75 pages--recounting developments between Fatah and Hamas, Egypt's role in the Islamic world, arguments over a two-state solution and the right of return, and issues of human rights abuse and terrorism in the region.

Now in its eighth edition, a essential resource on the more than century-old conflict in the Middle East
