Reviews

A thoughtful book concerned with the relationships among the media, the military, and policy makers. Recommended. Choice Provides valuable insights into the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians with lessons for students of strategy and counterinsurgency applicable to current operations in the Middle East. Defense Intelligence Journal Dr. Schleifer concludes that a comprehensive understanding of the efficacy of psychological warfare will be critical for all armies fighting future insurgencies. Middle East Journal His approach sheds light on an area every bit as relevant to the present, though little discussed by more traditional historians and political scientists the role of information, and to a lesser extent, the media, in determining the outcome of violent conflicts. Digest of Middle East Studies
