About the Book

The Camp David Summit of 2000 was a formative event in the history of the Israeli-Palestinian relations. It was the most comprehensive effort ever to resolve a hundred-year conflict. Yet, it not only ended in failure but was immediately followed by the eruption of unprecedented violence. After an message from President Bill Clinton, and introductory chapters by Shimon Shamir, Itamar Rabinovich, Sari Nusseibeh and Martin Indyk, the 27 chapter contributions are divided to: Israeli Negotiators, Palestinian Perspectives, American Participants, the Barak Version and its Critics, the Negotiation Experts, Academic Perspectives, and the Clinton Parameters. The volume concludes with a Political Debate on the way forward. This book is essential reading for all those interested in Israeli-Arab relations, the Middle East in general, international diplomacy, and conflict resolution.

Bruce Maddy-Weitzman is a Senior Research Fellow at the Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies at Tel Aviv University.

Review :
"The centerpiece of the book . . . and its real raison d'ètre, is a lengthy presentation by former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak entitled "The Myths Spread About Camp David Are Baseless," which gives a pretty clear idea of his no-holds-barred defense of his conduct at the historic summit." --International Journal of Middle East Studies "Provides the most probing discussion of the Camp David experience and its implications from insider perspectives, especially from the Israeli side. What makes the volume such a valuable and surprisingly revealing resource is the discussions among heavyweight Israeli political figures and intellectuals. These discussions disclose sharp cleavages among the Israelis as to what went wrong and what the failure means for the future." --Journal of Palestine Studies
