"In Israel's Clandestine Diplomacies an impressive set of authors
shed light on hitherto dark parts of Israel's foreign policy over
the years and offer new insights on more well-known periods. The
result is a balanced volume that provides a fresh look at several
vital chapters in Israel's history and conveys the rewards and
risks of secret diplomacy in general."--Daniel Byman, Professor in
the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University and author
of A High Price: The Triumphs and Failures of Israeli
Counterterrorism
"Jones and Petersen have assembled an accomplished volume of
extraordinary research by leading experts, who raise the curtain on
previously unknown chapters in Israel's diplomatic activities. The
essays in this volume provide insightful and timely analyses of
this unacknowledged, yet vital, component of Israeli foreign
policy." -- Uzi Rabi, Director of the Moshe Dayan Center for Middle
Eastern Studies, Tel Aviv University"This timely book presents a
sweeping international history of twentieth century Israeli covert
diplomacy in the Middle East, Africa and Europe. Superbly edited,
leading scholars bring a range of disciplinary perspectives,
grounded in deep contextual analysis of archives and in-depth
interviews to provide a panoramic view of the breaches and
continuities in Israel's clandestine international affairs. For
students, scholars and Middle East watchers, this is essential
reading." -- Michael Kerr, Professor of Conflict Studies and
Director of Middle East and Mediterranean Studies, King's College
