About the Author :
Gideon M. Kressel is Professor of Anthropology and Oriental Sciences at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel. He is the author of several books, including Ascendancy Through Aggression: The Anatomy of a Blood Feud Among Urbanized Bedouins and coeditor (with A. Paul Hare) of Israel as Center Stage: A Setting for Social and Religious Enactments.

Review :
Kressel's book contributes to our understanding of the difficulties experienced by romanticized groups ... under the conditions of market economies." - Journal of Rural Cooperation "This is a significant contribution, not just isolated to managing the 'Bedouin problem,' but also as a kind of model for applied research in similar fields." - Trond Thuen, author of Quest for Equity: Norway and the Saami Challenge "This account is a mature work of a scholar (once a child shepherd) who has devoted decades to research among the Bedouin. Let Shepherding Endure is both intellectually sound and substantively provocative." - Philip Carl Salzman, author of Black Tents of Baluchistan
