A propos de ce titre

Revue de presse:

"For all of us who hope for a decent peace between Israelis and Palestinians, who oppose the occupation and the BDS movement, who defend, against all odds, the two state solution, this book is powerful intellectual armor and an intellectual sword." Michael Walzer, Institute for Advanced Study, author of Just and Unjust Wars, Thinking Politically, The Paradox of Liberation and other books"

"Concise but encyclopedic, this superb reference guide is a book no one interested in what is one of our most central political issues today can afford to miss." Marjorie Perloff, Professor Emerita of English, Stanford University and University of Southern California; president emeritus, Modern Lanuage Association"

"In the miasma of the campus campaigns to boycott Israel and to reinvent the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Dreams Deferred offers the reader powerful, timely, and lucid accounts of the debates and controversies, providing essential information, provocative analysis, and an accessible guide." --Mark Yudof, President Emeritus, University of California"

"A rare blast of cogent analysis, reliable information, and just good sense about an issue desperately in need of all three." --Eric Alterman, Media Columnist, The Nation"

"This critical dictionary of anti-Israeli mendacities will be a sword in the hands of anybody who wants to cut through the dogmas and the intimidations of the BDS movement. It restores the disputation to first principles and first facts. It documents a foul intellectual bankruptcy. Slanders are refuted and cliches are shattered on its every page. Dreams Deferred is an important intervention in an important battle of ideas. I hope it finds many readers, especially on campus. Israel is not perfect, but enough is enough." --Leon Wieseltier"
