The unprecedented, three-volume Encyclopedia of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict is the first authoritative reference source to provide comprehensive, impartial coverage of one of the most torturous and prolonged conflicts of our time.
Written by an international team of more than 100 experts, and subject to an exhaustive, bias-hunting editorial process, this even-handed work presents some 900 A-to-Z entries covering the history, issues, actors, events, institutions, and policies related to the ongoing conflict. The set also includes maps, bibliographic references, a glossary, a chronology, and a detailed index.
