Product Description:
Unmaking Of Israel, The by Gorenberg, Gershom
Review:
"Clear and well argued."--"The Palestine Chronicle"

"Until I read "The Unmaking of Israel", I didn't think it could be possible to feel more despairing, and then more terribly hopeful, about Israel, a place that I began at last, under the spell of Gershom Gorenberg's lucid and dispassionate yet intensely personal writing, to understand."--Michael Chabon

"Until I read "The Unmaking of Israel," I didn't think it could be possible to feel more despairing, and then more terribly hopeful, about Israel, a place that I began at last, under the spell of Gershom Gorenberg's lucid and dispassionate yet intensely personal writing, to understand."--Michael Chabon

At the core of the book lies a terrifying analogy: Israel as Pakistan, a country whose government has empowered a lawless, fanatical religious movement now subverting the very state that empowered it. Is the analogy apt today? No, but Gorenberg makes a frighteningly convincing case that it might be soon. --Peter Beinart, "Newsweek""

Until I read "The Unmaking of Israel," I didn t think it could be possible to feel more despairing, and then more terribly hopeful, about Israel, a place that I began at last, under the spell of Gershom Gorenberg s lucid and dispassionate yet intensely personal writing, to understand. --Michael Chabon"

In a more forward-looking country, one less devoted to hounding its critics out of existence, legislators would roam the halls of the Knesset carrying well-thumbed copies of Gershom Gorenberg s "The Unmaking of Israel." --"The National""

A powerful and persuasive new book. ... A finely documented piece of reporting. --Joshua Hammer, "The Washington Monthly""

Eloquent. ... An indispensable, closely argued, and conditionally apocalyptic book. ... Gorenberg outlines many reasonable steps Israel should take to disentangle religion from the state. --Jeffrey Goldberg, "The New York Times Book Review""

Gorenberg provides a deft but penetrating and highly nuanced account of the recent history and current politics of Israel. ... He issues a heartfelt and heart-rending plea for the repair of the Jewish democracy. --"The Jewish Journal""

An important book. ... Essential reading for those in the U.S. who view Israel in simple terms as the only democracy in the Middle East. Gorenberg has provided a roadmap for a better future. One hopes that this deeply personal critique will receive the consideration it deserves. --The Washington Independent Review of Books"
