| Summary: | Palestine and the Arab-Israeli Conflict provides a comprehensive, balanced and accessible narrative of a complex historical topic. Charles D. Smith examines how underlying issues, group motives, religious and cross-cultural clashes, diplomacy and imperialism and the arrival of the modern era shaped this volatile region. The narrative is supported by more than forty primary documents that highlight perspectives from all sides of the struggle, as well as maps, photographs, chronologies, public opinion polls and discussion questions. A new chapter 12 covers the Obama administration's peace efforts with Israel and Iran, as well as the Trump administration's reactions to current events in the Middle East. |
