Definitely a must for those who want a short introduction to the conflict. ... Even for those who are well versed in the events and issues involved, it is useful to have the whole history in such a short space. -- Jordan Times ... a highly recommendable and much-needed brief introductory reading on the complex Palestinian-Israeli conflict -- Moshe Machover Berry and Philo's book is a key resource. [They have] produced a very readable, coherent amd well-sourced account - giving both the Palestinian and Isreali viewpoints. -- Palestine News
