Description: "Inside Israel offers a timely exploration of the nation of Israel in all its complexity - from the years when Palestinians and Jews lived side by side, to the founding of the state in 1948, to today's bloody conflicts in a land that three of the major religions - Judaism, Islam, and Christianity - call home.

Inside Israel gathers essays by some of the world's preeminent thinkers, historians, and journalists in an attempt to bring insight, understanding, and solutions to this perpetually troubled and infinitely vital region."--BOOK JACKET.
