Amos Elon has been reflecting and reporting on the state of Israel for thirty years. He has also written with passion and clarity on the politics, culture and society of his country's neighbours in the Middle East. Working in the midst of the eventshe describes, he offers a wealth of detail based on close observation and intimate understanding. But the freshness and immediacy of his essays are always underscored by a determination to place those events in the wider context of centuries of coexistence and struggle.
