This is a wonderful book; Quite short which helps when the subject is so emotional. I do not know a great deal of the history of Palestine but I know enough to be deeply ashamed that I'm British and that our lying and self interest caused great damage. I'm sorry.The stories that go with the recipes (or should it be recipes that go with the stories?) are moving because they are so matter of fact and everyday.The recipes are outstanding because they are "people's" recipes and show how beautiful food can be prepared from very little and it has opened my eyes to the proper way to make and serve hummus.I have no hesitation in recommending this book - even if you don't intend to use it for the recipes., I used this as a textbook for a university-level anthropology course on experimental ethnographic writing. My students loved it!, There is every reason to assume that this cookbook will be a great success. It has a scarcity value. I am sure there are lots of copies available but how rare is a book that talks about mutual respect, friendship and hope between these two constantly warring peoples. How could such a book come to be and why would the marvellous Claudia Roden take sufficient interest in this little book to write the foreword?Robin Soans is the compiler of this book. I don't describe him as the author because the authors are the Arabs and Israelis who eat together. But it all started with a play! Two forward-thinking directors, Tim Roseman and Rima Brihi, one Arab and one Israeli, had a dream. They would plan a play about the conflict. The characters would not be soldiers, bombers or politicians. They would be ordinary people caught in the middle... as they always are. Cooking is at the centre of most people's lives, whatever religion. This book is a product of that play.The Arab-Israeli Cookbook isn't an over-worthy tome. It's about people but it's about food and the food that those people are happy to share. There are lots of Middle Eastern classics here. These are recipes that you can trust because they are family recipes that have, in some cases, been passed down for many generations. The dishes start with breakfast and continue to dessert and they are tempting.The traditional dishes include hummus, falafel, fattoush, tabboulet and kibbeh, but there are others that are new to me. Paprika Prawns has its roots in central Europe and a gorgeous chocolate cake was a surprise: a moist sponge with a chocolate-butter cream filling and a rich coffee and chocolate icing.The final chapter of the book reflects upon the author's diary of his stay in the Middle East. It makes sombre and sober reading but it reminds us that ordinary men, women and children continue to live their lives under the most tragic and dangerous of circumstances. The issues are complex and seem beyond resolution but we must put our faith in those who still believe that the fork is mightier than the sword... or gun... or bomb.The Arab-Israeli Cookbook has delicious food and a message. Robin says... "there is a whole other side you don't read about or see in the media... individuals who, in their own private way, are building, not burning bridges..."

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
