A. J. Abraham – författare

In April of 1975, Lebanon, the tranquil Middle Eastern country called the Switzerland of the Orient, exploded into a violent conflict that lasted almost two decades. This book explores the convoluted politics and forces within Lebanon and the Near East that made the atmosphere in that tiny republic highly charged, thus inhibiting conflict resolution. This comprehensive study describes the strategies, battles, and conferences that kept Lebanon aflame, despite the best efforts of all concerned parties to terminate the bloodshed. Abraham looks at Lebanon from the inside-out, highlighting the conflicting politics of Lebanese leaders, the failure of the democratic left to take over the state, and the underlying problem of the PLO's presence in the country.

Throughout its long and enduring past, Lebanon has been a microcosm for the entire Arab world. Lebanon in Modern Times is the first full-length, comprehensive study of modern Lebanon in 50 years. Abraham's study chronicles the history of Lebanon from the great Ottoman Turkish Conquest to present day events. By emphasizing the state's complex domestic and foreign problems from historical and psychological perspectives, Abraham highlights the state's foreign policy and identity crisis. This careful study of Lebanese politics and foreign policy reflects the problems we now face in the Middle East and offer's democratic suggestions to the Muslim and Third World.

The Eternal War chronicles the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict and thoroughly analyzes it from both a historical and psychological outlook. But it is much more that that-this book is the only study that focuses on all the issues from a Palestinian and Israeli viewpoint, as well as that of the Arab States. And, for the first time ever, Abraham presents an original and comprehensive plan for peace that gives all the parties much of what they want (but not everything they want) for successful negotiations and the achievement of a just and lasting peace. No other study on this subject offers such an emboldened and imaginative plan.
