 Review of The Origins of the Arab-Israeli Wars
First published in 1984, Ovendale's study went through seven printings and now appears in a second, updated edition; it is therefore a major source of information on the Arab-Israeli conflict.
(Incidentally, the study is misnamed, being more about the wars themselves than their origins.) Too bad, for it's an eccentric and biased work.
In Ovendale's view, "the Arab-Israeli wars resulted from great, and then superpower, policies." He blames London and Washington most, Paris and Moscow secondarily.
