Over dit product

Product Information

The Arab-Israeli conflict is one of the most intense and intractable international conflicts of modern times. This book is about the historical roots of that conflict. It re-examines the history of 1948, the war in which the newly-born state of Israel defeated the Palestinians and the regular Arab armies of the neighbouring states so decisively. The book includes chapters on all the principal participants, on the reasons for the Palestinian exodus, and on the political and moral consequences of the war. The chapters are written by leading Arab, Israeli and western scholars who draw on primary sources in all relevant languages to offer alternative interpretations and new insights into this defining moment in Middle East history. The result is a major contribution to the literature on the 1948 war. It will command a wide audience from among students and general readers with an interest in the region.

English Historical Review, '... a cogent and comprehensive work on the central event in the Middle East in the year 1948 ... The War for Palestine demonstrates a dedication to empirical research and a determination to draw independent conclusions'.English Historical Review, "A first-rate collection of studies on the 1948 Arab-Israeli war. The authors have exploited public archives, memoirs, and other newly available sources to produce a richer and more balanced history of 'the war for Palestine.'" Foreign Affairs, 'This volume presents important and original scholarship on the 1948 war ... It succeeds in bringing together historians from different backgrounds and demonstrates their ability to communicate and jointly challenge historical myths.'American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences, 'This critical look at internal factors on the Arab side is most welcome in order to understand the events of 1948.' Journal of Peace Research, "This volume presents important and original scholarship on the 1948 war and attempts to move the disputes about its historiography from ideological into more productive terrains. It succeeds in bringing together historians from different backgrounds and demonstrates their ability to communicate and jointly challenge historical myths." The American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences, "The War for Palestine is an important book that critically examines and re-examines one of the most important events in the twentieth-century Middle East. This book would be of great service to anyone--from the novice to the expert on the subject matter--who not only wants to understand the beginning of the Arab-Israeli wars, but who also wants to better understand why the Middle East is the way it is today." H-Net: Humanities and Social Sciences Online, 'The result is a book which is rich in new material and new insights and which enhances considerably our understanding of the historical roots of the Arab-Israeli conflict.'The Middle East, "They provide instant access to content as well as support for the objectivity of this fascinating account of the unending war for Palestine.

English Historical Review, This stimulating guide to the complex political and military topography of the 1948 war sets new, rigorous standards for subsequent scholars, and should be required reading for anyone who needs to understand what the whole Arab-Israeli business is about. Contemporary Review, "This collection of essays is the first book to attempt to rewrite 1948 focusing on all the major participants. It has the virtue of being both useful for a scholarly audience and accessible for a more general audience. It is a resounding success in its own right and will inspire further rethinking of 1948 and its bearing on the present." The International History Review, 'The result is a book which is rich in new material and new insights and which enhances considerably our understanding of the historical roots of the Arab-Israeli conflict.'

First order was MISSING CD 1 of a 2 CD set. I tried contacting seller 3 times with NO RESPONSE. eBay finally issued me a refund without the sellers’ response. I ordered a replacement set from this same seller. So far it’s been 2 weeks with NO DELIVERY. It’s been about a MONTH since my original order. Still waiting. Still no communication. Bad service. Will remember… I hope for a response from the seller but I’m not holding my breath…
