Israel in the News

Conflict in the Middle East is largely centered on the existence of Israel, a Jewish state surrounded by predominantly Muslim countries. Readers will learn more about the violent clash in the Middle East as well as Israel's land, religion, government, economy, and culture in David Aretha's addition to the Middle East Nations in the News series.

* Reviews *

The Middle East has always been an important area filled with political unrest. Many countries are flourishing economically because of rich oil deposits. Each of the volumes in this series (which at the time of review were Lebanon in the News: Past, Present, and future and Iran in the News: Past, Present and Future) outlines the history of a country, as well as the current changes in the economic and political structures. Features of this volume are the Internet sites that are kept up to date and used as a resource for students writing research projects. The Report Links provide such useful sources as documents, photographs, and illustrations. A complete list of Report Links can be found at the back of each volume. Additional helpful features include maps and timeline. Bibliography. Recommended., Library Media Connection October 2006
