About this title: The late Edward Said, literary scholar and Palestinian activist, spoke out strongly on the Arab-Israeli conflict and America's role in the Middle East. The essays in this collection are pre- and post-9/11, and were originally published in a variety of places, including the Arab press and the New York Times op-ed page. They include polemical calls for a new Palestinian leadership to replace a corrupt Yasir Arafat, as well as Said's cautionary stance on America's decision to invade Iraq.

"In From Oslo to Iraq and the Road Map, Said writes about the second intifada and about the so-called peace process, which he terms a kind of 'fast-food peace' underscored by 'malevolent sloppiness. ' He discusses the breach of democracy in the last American presidential election and describes the Bush administration as hopeless ... read more
"I would recommend this title of the many Said essay collections. It gets tiresome reading essentially the same op-ed pieces over and again, which is what these anthologies of Said's political writing are (The End of the Peace Process, The Politics of Dispossession, and so forth)."
"I can't recommend this text to any reader new to Edward Said, check out Orientalism as its a much better introduction to his scholarly point of view. However, this is a fairly good collection of essays of the Middle East conflict, particularly the current "peace" process. Said provides excellent explanation and interpretation of the Camp David meetings and the Oslo accords, and also scrutinizes the Palestinian leadership. Said was a remarkable professor and and a virtuous man and I am sure his passing is a blow to the Palestinian people."
"This collection of essays touched me. It is a powerful experience to read and follow the development of his political appeals. It raises many questions and will inspire the reader to learn more about Palestine."
