Synopsis

"... a thoughtful, realistic, compassionate, and even-handed analytical document.... The report focuses on the doable and the attainable; it is not wishful thinking nor Pollyannish." ―Journal of Palestine Studies

"The befuddled tourist in the maze of Arab-Israel diplomacy is well advised to select this guide book, to facilitate navigation toward the worthwhile, if potentially elusive, goal of Israeli-Palestinian peace." ―International Jorunal of Middle East Studies

"The Academy’s study offers detailed and concrete proposals for addressing the numerous problems that will arise in implementing the transition to any form of Palestinian self-rule. It makes a critical contribution to the peace process and provides a potential roadmap for where we go from here." ―Lee H. Hamilton, U.S. House of Representatives, Committee on Foreign Affairs

"This report is extraordinarily ambitious, impressive, and timely." ―Samuel Lewis, president, United States Institute of Peace

"The report is eminently fair, balanced, and equitable to both parties. It should be required reading... " ―Choice

"Anyone seriously interested in the current Arab-Israeli peace negotiations would do well to consult this report." ―Foreign Affairs

"This report offers a dramatic vision of peace and a rich supply of intelligent proposals and recommendations." ―Middle East Policy

"... thoughtful analysis. Presented in an easily accessible and practical manner, readers will be saturated with intelligent discussion of the policy issues involved in several phases of negotiated settlement to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict." ―MESA Bulletin
