Routledge Handbook on Israeli SecurityAuthor(s): Stuart A. Cohen, Aharon Klieman\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Routledge\nISBN-13: 9781138217300, 978-1138217300\nSynopsis\nThe Routledge Handbook on Israeli Security provides an authoritative survey of both the historical roots of Israels national security concerns and their principal contemporary expressions. Following an introduction setting out its central themes, the Handbook comprises 27 independent chapters, all written by experts in their fields, several of whom possess first-hand diplomatic and/or military experience at senior levels. An especially noteworthy feature of this volume is the space allotted to analyses of the impact of security challenges not just on Israels diplomatic and military postures (nuclear as well as conventional) but also on its cultural life and societal behavior. \n\nSpecifically, it aims to fulfill three principal needs. \n\nThe first is to illustrate.
