Biography
Ghassan Khatib is Vice President and lecturer at Birzeit University, Palestine. He founded, and was the Director of the Jerusalem Media and Communication Centre. He was also formerly a member of the Joint Working Group on Israeli-Palestinian Relations at the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs, Harvard University, USA.
Overall this book adds a significant and distinctive contribution to the scholarly work on Palestine and provides various hints and insights to what went wrong over the last two decades in the Middle East peace process and what can be learnt so as to avoid the mistakes in the future. At the end of the day it remains an inspiring book for an uninspiring peace process.
