About the book
Noam Chomsky’s seminal tome on Mideast politics has become a classic in the fields of political science and Mideast affairs. For its tenth printing, Chomsky has added chapters bringing the book completely up to date, with a new preface by Chomsky, a new foreword from Palestinian author and activist Edward W. Said, and new material on the Intifada, the ongoing Israeli-PLO "peace process" (including the Oslo and Wye accords), and Israel’s war against Lebanon. It is invaluable to anyone seeking to understand the Middle East and US foreign policy today.
Subjects: Palestinian Arabs, Peace, Arab-Israeli conflict, Relations judéo-arabes, World politics, Jewish-Arab relations
