- catalog abstract ""There are few areas of contemporary study where an explanation of the past is more vital to an understanding of the present than the Arab-Israeli wars. Ritchie Ovendale's study of the roots of these conflicts first appeared in 1984 before being reissued as a Second Edition in 1992." "Now updated for a third time, Professor Ovendale has revised the text to take account of recently published literature, and new interpretations of issues such as the 'Arab awakening', as well as the origins and course of the Suez-Sinai, and the June 1967 and October 1973 wars. The book is also brought up-to-date with a final chapter on the peace process. This covers the American-Israeli 'special relationship', the Madrid conference, the Oslo accords, Arafat's return to Gaza, Netanyahu as Israeli Prime Minister, and the Wye Memorandum."--Jacket.".
