"A lot of thought and effort has clearly gone into conducting this study, which deals with a relevant and interesting topic, and the result is an important contribution to the academic debate about the relation between the Israeli state and its Palestinian minority." - Sarah Cardaun, Ph.D., King’s College, London; Journal of International and Global Studies Vol. 3, No. 2 Spring 2012"This is an ambitious study, contentious in its argument and interpretation but one that throughout is infused with a scholarly rigor – both in terms of the fieldwork and interpretation of the material - that is second to none. One might well question the absolute level of discrimination encountered by Palestinian Christians in Israel. After all, their levels of educational achievement have perhaps given them a level of social mobility that the author perhaps underplays. Even so, this remains an impressive work and certainly the best study that we have to date on the role and position of Palestinian Christians in Israel. Given that debates over identity, ethnicity and religion remain the staple of understanding the domestic politics of the State of Israel, the relevance and longevity of this study would seem to be assured." – Professor Clive Jones, University of Durham, UK
