Israel
In the course of more than a century of nation building (even though Israel has few natural resources other than the grit of its people), the country has developed into a high-tech wonder. Yet peace remains an elusive dream. Israel faces the constant threat of an Iranian nuclear attack and has been involved in several wars. Many Israelis are veterans of more than a single war. Since many Israelis are haunted by war and terror, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is common. Voices from Israel: Stories of Conflict and Resolution, Love and Death tells about Israel's many accomplishments in the face of great adversity. It's a warts and all commentary on the Jewish state--a country, like many countries, that has its flaws. The battle-hardened people of Israel--Jews, Arabs, Druze, and others--are persevering against the Middle East's climate of racism, intolerance, and terror. These eight stories depict the prejudice, frustration, and heartbreak--tempered with hope--which people experience in Israel.
Israel and the Arab World
This entry in Voices From Israel examines Israel's geopolitical position in the Middle East and the Arab world.The status of many Palestinians as stateless people and refugees is often in the news. This book explains how this tragedy was created and is being perpetuated. The narrative examines Zionist chauvinism, Arab rejectionism, the long and convoluted search for peace, and the history of asymmetric warfare and terror.We'll look at Israel's relations with Egypt and Jordan - with whom it has peace treaties.We'll meet some Palestinians, including Palestinian Americans, and we'll encounter a symbol that evokes co-existence and peace.Parallel to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is a war for public opinion. I encourage you, dear readers, to have an open mind and to avoid stereotypes as you seek to unravel the tangled truth. Peace begins in one's heart, and not from government decrees. Certainly not from propaganda.May we all merit to contribute to peace and understanding in the global village which is the planet Earth.
Voices from Israel Set 2 (5-Volume Set) New Series
These 5 titles in the Voices From Israel series are targeted to high school students in grades 8 through 12.

The magnificent photography supplements the text, giving students around the world a first-hand look at Israel. These books correlate well to common core standards that ask students to read stories and literature, as well as more complex texts that provide facts and background knowledge in areas such as science and social studies. Students will be challenged and asked questions that push them to refer back to what theyve read. This stresses critical-thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills that are required for success in college, career, and life.
Culture, Customs, and Celebrations in Israel
Culture in Israel is dynamic. Like in America or in Europe, pop culture, though rooted in history, is ever-changing and evolving. In many countries, culture is influenced by the neighboring countries, global immigration, and military heritage. But in the pressure cooker of contemporary Israel, culture changes more quickly than elsewhere. You can see evidence of this ultra-modernity by the country's almost universal cellphone and internet usage, the high percentage of consumers who make purchases online, and the two-thirds of Israelis who traveled outside the country in 2014. Language here reflects this warp-speed change. Welcome to an exploration of one of the world's oldest yet newest cultures, and certainly one of its most vibrant.
