Book Overview
In this informed and enlightening book, Colin Chapman assesses the centrality of Jerusalem in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, tracing its history through the ages and showing how the issues of the past are relevant today. Since 1967, the Israelis have controlled the city and the areas around it, creating new settlements and roads to transform its geography and demography, and provoking intense opposition from the Palestinians. The situation today appears hopeless as the conflict continues violently with Jerusalem at its centre. How, Colin Chapman asks, can the two sides reach agreement over this most holy of cities?

A real solution
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book is written by someone who lived in the Middle East and knows that culture very well. He suggests realistic and doable solutions to the Jerusalm problem and Middle Eastern conflicts. I wish our politicians and policy makers in the USA read this book. If you want to read one book about this subject, this is the book. Don't miss it.
