Book presentation
Details
The report takes a new approach (in comparison to other reference works) by addressing various topics through detailed and sound articles, which offer multiple aspects and perspectives. The book aims at depicting the complex reality of Israel in its context, as Dr. Gisela Dachs mentions in her introduction. Her project has been perfectly implemented. The authors' effort of reflecting upon the concrete living conditions of Israeli society is particularly remarkable.
