"This collection of essays from zionist thinkers from all ages is the bible of zionism studies, it covers almost all aspects of historical zionist thinking from atheist, secular, political and cultural side of it.By reading this book you can get a big picture of how zionism as an ideology evolves itself from myriads of persuasions conditioned by history, context and vested interest.
Here also you can find the best oracle rhetoric, for example Ben Gurion's "Our revolution is directed not only against a system but against destiny, against the unique destiny of a unique people...resisting fate is not enough, we must master our fate; we must take our destiny into our hands, this is the doctrine of Jewish revolution" [p.607-609).
I also think this book can be a good example of civic religion studies, where nationalism & politics sometimes blurred itself in the citation of scriptures presented with holy pathos."
