Written in a clear and easy-to-follow style, this revealing text examines the contemporary political geography of the West Bank and Gaza strip.

Descriptive in nature, it documents the changes and developments since 1967 right up to the disengagement from Gaza. The book is supplemented by numerous maps and covers issues including demography, Jewish settlements, water and natural resources, transport infrastructure, planning, partition plans for Jerusalem, settlement policy and the Separation Fence.

One of the first books to tackle this contentious subject from a geographical rather than a political or historical perspective, The West Bank and Gaza Strip will be of huge interest to both undergraduate and graduate students studying the Israel-Palestine question.

Rezensionen
"This is a refreshing and forthright book by a respected Israeli academic who, after a long career focused on planning issues in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza, is willing to take a stand, to challenge myths, and to say what many dare not say...The West Bank and the Gaza Strip: A Geography of Occupation and Disengagement is highly recommended for its detailed description of the process of Israeli occupation and for its analysis of the core issues of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict...The primary strength of the book is derived from the fact that it is written by an experienced Israeli professor who has witnessed first hand the planning, implementation, and impending failure of Israel's occupation."--Middle East Journal, Vol 60 No 4, Autumn 2006
