Historical dictionary of Israel / Bernard Reich, David H. Goldberg.

"This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Israel fills a gap in the literature by providing comprehensive information about the various diplomatic and political personalities, institutions, organizations, events, concepts, and documents that define the political life of the Jewish state. This is done through a list of acronyms and abbreviations, a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on significant people, places, events, government institutions, political parties, and battles - physical, economical, societal, and cultural."--BOOK JACKET.
