Summary |
"Israel is an important place for people of three major religions: Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. This has given it a rich history, but it has also led to conflict. Readers take an informative look at what life is like in Israel for people of different groups as they explore meticulously researched text, which has been updated to discuss current events. Vivid, full-color photographs are found throughout chapters that focus on topics such as government, geography, religions, arts, and food. These chapters also contain detailed sidebars and fact boxes. Maps serve as a helpful tool to better understand life in Israel"-- Provided by publisher. |
