The U.S. Institute of Peace is pleased to announce the publication of Negotiating Arab-Israeli Peace: American Leadership in the Middle East, co-authored by Ambassador Daniel C. Kurtzer and Dr. Scott B. Lasensky. The book is a "refreshingly bipartisan evaluation" of the past three presidencies, says Foreign Affairs magazine; "today's leadership (and tomorrow's) could usefully build on the lessons presented here."
The study, designed as a guidebook for future American negotiators, offers both an insider's account and a critical assessment of American involvement in the Arab-Israeli peace process. Negotiating Arab-Israeli Peace is the product of the Institute's Study Group on Arab-Israeli Peacemaking, which brings together some of the most recognized experts on the subject: William Quandt (University of Virginia), Steven Spiegel (UCLA), and Shibley Telhami (University of Maryland and Brookings Institution).
To schedule interviews or events with the authors, please contact Meg Pierannunzi or Kay Hechler.
