"Riveting, fast-paced packed with fascinating information you never get on CNN or the NY Times or NPR.
This updated 2008 book is great for travelers, students, techies-- anyone interested in modern Israelis.
An Israeli friend gave it to me. I couldn't put it down. Learned beyond the headlines -- about modern Israeli Jews, Muslims and Christians, Ethiopians, Russians,soldiers, students, gays, techies, religious, athiests.
Great for readers of all political and religious backgrounds --and all ages. Excellent gift for politicians and theologians and professors. And book groups too."
"This is a very detailed and diverse portrayal of the people of a modern day Israel. The book is as complex as the situation in that part of the world."
"My coworker from Israel recommended this book as a good example of insight into all the many factions at play in such a dense, historic land. Thanks, Sarit!"
"I've always wished that I had studied in Israel. This was a fascinating read to me--a lot of details about the complexities of a volatile region, and why it's only growing more complicated every year. The author has written for Newsweek and the book reads like a huge article from that magazine."
