Noam Chomsky's seminal tome on Mideast politics has become a classic in the fields of political science and Mideast affairs.
For its tenth printing, Chomsky has added chapters bringing the book completely up to date, with a new preface by Chomsky, a new foreword from Palestinian author and activist Edward W. Said, and new material on the Intifada, the ongoing Israeli-PLO 'peace process' (including the Oslo and Wye accords), and Israel's war against Lebanon.
