First published in 1987 and this edition in 1990, Israel, Palestinians and the Intifada is a comprehensive book covering the dynamics of interaction between Israeli policies and Palestinian responses. Concentrating on the West Bank, it was written from firsthand observation and original sources by Oxford-trained scholar and journalist Geoffrey Aronson. Hebrew and Arabic accounts have been used almost exclusively in the preparation of this book.

On the Israeli side, the author explores the push and pull of competing factions and personalities and their impact on occupation policies. On the Palestinian side, he chronicles the evolution of the Palestinian reaction to these policies, from the angry passivity of early stages of the occupation to the increasing politicization and growing popularity of the PLO. This is an important historical reference work for the scholars and researchers of West Asian studies, Middle East politics, international relations, peace and conflict resolution and political history.
