That this book even exists is remarkable. It’s extraordinarily difficult for a Palestinian and a Jew to write a book that fairly conveys the dominant mood in both communities about Palestine - Israel. But this book not only exists - it’s wise, engaging and deeply humane. It will prove an essential text in bringing diaspora Jews and Palestinians together in the justice movement that this moment demands. – Peter Beinart, author of The Crisis of Zionism
This inspiring book presents Arabs and Jews with the challenge of seeing the “other” as we want them to see us - fully human, with our hurts, history, & hopes for the future. It is a pure application of Martin Buber on the importance of forming ‘I-Thou relationships’ because when we recognize the humanity of others, it enhances our own humanity, as well. – James Zogby, president and co-founder, Arab American Institute
