Highly recommended for public and academic libraries."" - Library Journal By mid-2004, Palestinian attacks, including suicide bombings, directed at Israelis in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and inside Israel, resulted in approximately 1,000 deaths. Israel responded by reoccupying parts of the West Bank and Gaza, killing about 3,000 Palestinians, the majority of whom were civilians. Encyclopedia of the Palestinians, Revised Edition is the definitive source for high school students, undergraduates, and general readers who want an accurate account of these people and their long history. Much has happened since the first edition was published, including the breakdown of negotiations at Camp David, the subsequent outbreak of the Al-Aqsa Intifada, the death of Yasir Arafat, and the election of Mahmud Abbas, commonly known as Abu Mazen, as president of the Palestinian Authority. This crucial update includes new entries on recent developments and personalities, updates of many of the existing entries, and approximately 50 black-and-white photographs and additional maps. A document section has been added to the end of the book, including entire texts or excerpts of key documents on Palestinian history. New entries include: Al-Aqsa Intifada Barrier Camp David Summit Muhammad Dahlan Internally displaced persons Islamic jihad Al-Nakba Oslo Peace Process left of return Roadmap Textbooks Mustafa Zibri.The encyclopedia objectively details the historical and political factors behind such controversial topics as refugees, the West Bank, and terrorism. Coverage concentrates primarily on the modern era, from the late Ottoman period to the present; the ancient and medieval history of the region is also explored.
