Israel
A unique book for a special land: detailed texts and beautiful images describe this small Country located between Africa, Asia and Europe and where the most sacred places for humanity are located. But Israel is not just past or wild lands: a true tourist area of the Mediterranean, it offers splendid beaches with ultra-modern infrastructures and fascinating landscapes, from the Dead Sea to the Red Sea, to the Negev Desert. And then ancient cities, natural treasures, national parks and the unmissable sources of the Jordan. A land to be discovered.

Jesus Research
This volume explores nearly every facet of Jesus research -- from eyewitness criteria to the reliability of memory, from archaeology to psychobiography, from oral traditions to literary sources, and from narrative criticism to Gospel criticism. Bringing together a wide variety of topics and perspectives in one volume, this ambitious collaborative enterprise casts light on important debates and encourages creative links between ideas new and old. This distinguished collection of articles by internationally renowned Jewish and Christian scholars originates with the Princeton-Prague Symposium on Jesus Research. It summarizes the significant advances in understanding Jesus that scholars have made in recent years, chiefly through the development of diverse methodologies. Even readers who are already knowledgeable in the field will discover unique angles from well-known New Testament scholars, and all will be brought up to speed on the current state-of-play within Jesus studies.
Fabricating Israeli History
New edition of a study in which Karsh (Mediterranean Studies Programme at King's College, U. of London) takes issue with revisionist accounts of Israeli history. Through careful examination of the documentation they have used, as well as of sources that he believes were ignored, he suggests that for the most part the new historiography has violated every tenet of bona fide research, from reading into documents what is not there to making false descriptions of the contents of these documents.
