A groundbreaking account of the history of Palestine by one of the world's most eloquent scholars of the Middle East, featuring a new introduction by Saree Makdisi.

This original and deeply provocative book was the first to make Palestine the subject of a serious debate - one that remains as critical as ever. With the rigorous scholarship he brought to his influential Orientalism and an exile's passion (he is Palestinian by birth), Edward Said traces the fatal collision between two peoples in the Middle East and its repercussions in the lives of both the occupier and the occupied - as well as in the conscience of the West. For anyone interested in this region and its future, The Question of Palestine remains the classic account.

' A rguably New York's most famous public intellectual after Hannah Arendt and Susan Sontag, and America's most prominent advocate for Palestinian rights.' - Pankaj Mishra, New Yorker

'Edward Said is among the truly important intellectuals of our century. - Nadine Gordimer

'For those of us who see the struggle between Eastern and Western descriptions of the world as both an internal and an external struggle, Edward Said has for many years been an especially important voice.'
- Salman Rushdie
