The product of painstaking research and countless interviews, A High Price offers a nuanced, definitive historical account of Israel's bold but often failed efforts to fight terrorist groups.

Story
In 2010, the al Rabeeah family left their home in Iraq in hope of a safer life. They moved to Homs, in Syria - just before the Syrian civil war broke out. Abu Bakr, one of eight children, was 10 years old when the violence began on the streets around him: car bombings, attacks on his mosque and school, firebombs late at night. Homes tells of the strange juxtapositions of growing up in a war zone: horrific, unimaginable events punctuated by normalcy - soccer, cousins, video games, friends.

Story
Over the summer of 2013 Egypt witnessed its worst anti-Christian violence in centuries, with dozens of churches burned down by supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood. In Syria Islamist gunmen occupy the faith’s holiest site, while the Civil War has given Sunni extremists the chance to empty Christian villages through ‘religious cleansing’. And 10 years after the fall of Saddam, Iraq’s pre-war Christian population has fallen from a million to 200,000 and now barely clings on.

Story
From award-winning journalist Jack Shenker, The Egyptians is the essential book about Egypt and radical politics. In early 2011 Cairo's Tahrir Square briefly commanded the attention of the world. Half a decade later, the international media has largely moved on from Egypt's explosive cycles of revolution and counter-revolution - but the Arab world's most populous nation remains as volatile as ever, its turmoil intimately bound up with forms of authoritarian power and grassroots resistance that stretch right across the globe.

Story
On March 21, 1968, Yasir Arafat and his guerrillas made the fateful decision to break with conventional guerrilla tactics, choosing to stand and fight an Israeli attack on the al-Karama refugee camp in Jordan. They suffered terrible casualties, but they won a stunning symbolic victory that transformed Arafat into an Arab hero and allowed him to launch a worldwide campaign, one that would reshape Cold War diplomacy and revolutionary movements everywhere. In The Global Offensive, historian Paul Thomas Chamberlin offers new insights into the rise of the Palestine Liberation Organization.

Peace between Arabs and Jews seems forever out of reach, both sides caught in a never-ending cycle of violence and revenge. But while treaties and other top-down solutions have had little lasting effect, peacemakers on the ground are creating real change - within themselves and with their enemies. In Bridges Across an Impossible Divide, American professor Marc Gopin offers an unprecedented exploration of the spiritual lives of Arab and Jewish peacemakers who have evolved deep friendships despite decades of war and suffering on all sides.

Story
A sweeping cultural history of the Near East, from the birth of civilisation to the present day. The Near East was the cradle of civilisation: the Sumerians invented urban living and writing here, and monotheism was born and spread across the globe. Arthur Cotterell vividly sketches the extraordinary cultures that have left their mark on the region, from their early myths, deities and rituals of worship to their pioneering political systems and military conquests.

Story
In 1989, Francis Fukuyama famously announced the "end of history." The Berlin Wall had fallen; liberal democracy had won out. But what of illiberal democracy - the idea that popular majorities, working through the democratic process, might reject gender equality, religious freedoms, and other norms that Western democracies take for granted? Nowhere have such considerations become more relevant than in the Middle East, where the uprisings of 2011 swept the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist groups to power.

Story
A riveting memoir of the first Israeli-born Jewish American to be sent as a Peace Corps volunteer to a closed Arab society. A good memoir is a survivor's tale - the story of a person who has faced obstacles and made it through well enough to tell it. Dalya Cohen-Mor, a Sabra-born American woman, volunteered to serve in the Peace Corps, went through a lengthy and highly competitive application process, was accepted, and was sent to serve in the predominantly Palestinian country of Jordan.

Story
All’origine di questo libro c’è un viaggio che comincia in Israele e nei territori occupati della Palestina al principio del 2023 e prosegue – nella riflessione – nei mesi seguenti l’eccidio del 7 ottobre. Roberta De Monticelli vede rappresentato nella Palestina il luogo in cui prende forma esemplare e tragica uno dei paradossi su cui si regge la civiltà. Da quando esiste, il diritto è in tensione costante con la giustizia e con la forza e vige in virtù della politica che pure ne è vincolata e regolata – salvo farsi non solo cieca ma criminale.

Tra israeliani e palestinesi chi ha torto e chi ha ragione? Chi sono i "buoni" e chi i "cattivi"? Gli israeliani, che "da vittime si sono trasformati in carnefici"? O i palestinesi, che "non vogliono altro che distruggere Israele"? E quando comincia il conflitto? A fine Ottocento, con la nascita del sionismo, negli anni Venti del Novecento o nel 1948, quando Israele viene attaccato dai paesi arabi "con l’obiettivo di annientarlo", o quando si verifica la "pulizia etnica dei palestinesi"? E perché la pace non è mai stata raggiunta?

Le proteste di fine Ottocento per la vendita della concessione del tabacco a un cittadino inglese, che videro per la prima volta uniti il clero, i mercanti e le donne dell'harem reale? O forse il volto severo dell'ayatollah Khomeini di ritorno a Teheran dopo la rivoluzione del 1979 da cui ebbe origine la Repubblica islamica?

Sorto nel XV secolo sulle rovine dello stato selgiuchide e di Bisanzio, l'impero ottomano si estende rapidamente sino alle frontiere dell'Austria-Ungheria, in Medio Oriente e nell'Africa settentrionale. Questo volume ne ripercorre la storia politica dalle origini all'apogeo, e poi fino alla sua disgregazione, cominciata già nel XVII secolo e consumatasi nel corso dell'Ottocento, con il risveglio dei nazionalismi balcanici e sotto la spinta imperialista delle nuove potenze industriali.

Story
Sulla base di una conoscenza diretta delle fonti e dell'ormai sterminata bibliografia di lingua tedesca e italiana, l'autore traccia un profilo dell'imperatore normanno-svevo Federico II (1194-1250), una delle figure più discusse del Medioevo europeo. Il volume è suddiviso in tre parti: la prima è dedicata alla storia politica di Federico, segnata dalla lotta con il Papato e i Comuni; la seconda si occupa dell'uomo, della sua sfera famigliare, dei suoi interessi filosofici e scientifici, e del suo entourage di cui facevano parte anche studiosi ebraici e arabi; la terza segue la formazione del mito di Federico attraverso i secoli fino ai giorni nostri.

Se Atatürk volle una Turchia laica e occidentale, oggi Erdogan va nella direzione opposta. Il paese sta assistendo infatti a una rapidissima reislamizzazione, segno che ottant'anni di laicismo di stato non hanno mai scalfito davvero l'islamismo delle masse. Dopo il recente golpe mancato, impadronitosi di ogni apparato statale, abbandonato ogni discorso europeo, Erdogan mira a far diventare la Turchia leader di un'area vastissima (che ricalca quella dell'antico impero ottomano) e paese guida dei sunniti.

Story
Istanbul, com'è stata chiamata fin dalla conquista ottomana del 1453, ma com'è denominata ufficialmente solo all'indomani della Prima guerra mondiale. "Nèa Ryme", Nuova Roma, secondo il suo nome ufficiale. Costantinopoli, il suo vero nome, da sempre e per sempre. Un nome che evoca immagini mirabili: il sogno dell'Oriente, le lontananze raggiungibili attraverso il Bosforo e l'Anatolia. Le moschee, gli harem, i sufi danzanti, gli aromi dei bazar. Da mezzo millennio l'Europa identifica in quella sola città il prezioso anello di congiunzione fra l'antichità perduta e la modernità.
