Query: Interesting, but

This book is definately an interesting read. Dennis Ross has all of the details on all the negotiations betweem Israel and Syria, and between Israel and the Palestinians. And, it's all recounted in detail (Ross clearly took a lot of notes). However, the major problem with the book is that it doesn't give the big picture...you can get lost in all the minutia of negotiating detail. For instance, was Arafat ever really serious about making peace with Israel???? On a few occasions, Ross does mention the terrorism of the Palestinians, but refuses to put it into the larger context - on the overall intentions of the PA/PLO. Read this book for the detail, and for the detail on how Arafat refused to really negotiate at Camp David, but read other books to put it all in context.
