- Summary
- "Mark Tessler's highly praised, comprehensive, and balanced history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from the earliest times to the present - updated to the first decade of the twenty-first century - provides a constructive framework for understanding recent developments and assessing the prospects for future peace. New chapters elucidate the Oslo peace process, including the reasons for its failure, and the political dynamics in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza at a critical time of transition."--BOOK JACKET.
