Using a question-and-answer format, Frank organizes topics first by presenting an overview of the conflict and then, chronologically, moving from the birth of Judaism through the unification of the Arabs to modern events, concluding in the spring of 2004. The dense, dispassionate narrative reduces the volatility of the subject, and equal time is given to both points of view. Maps, timeline. Bib., glos., ind.
