In 2000, a group of Israeli and Palestinian teachers gathered to address what to many people seemed an unbridgeable gulf between the two societies. Struck by how different the standard Israeli and Palestinian textbook histories of the same events were from one another, they began to explore how to "disarm" the teaching of the history of the Middle East in Israeli and Palestinian classrooms. The result is a riveting "dual narrative" of Israeli and Palestinian history. "Side by Side" comprises the history of two peoples, in separate narratives set literally side-by-side, so that readers can track each against the other, noting both where they differ as well as where they correspond. The unique and fascinating presentation has been translated into English and is now available to American audiences for the first time. An eye-opening--and inspiring--new approach to thinking about one of the world's most deeply entrenched conflicts, "Side by Side" is a breakthrough book that will spark a new public discussion about the bridge to peace in the Middle East.

A group of teachers in Israel set out to develop a unified narrative of the history of Israel/Palestine that they could teach to their students. They couldn't. So they put out this book instead, which has one narrative on the left-hand page and the other narrative of the same time period on the right-hand page. The differences are grave and startling. Helps a lot in understanding the situation.
