Israel -- Arab-Israeli conflict -- Economic aspects

In 1922, there were ninety thousand Jews in Palestine, a small country in a poor and volatile region. In the twenty-first century, Israel has a population of nine million and is one of the richest countries in the world. The author tells the story of this remarkable transformation, shedding critical light on Israel's rapid economic growth. The author takes readers from those early days to the 2000s, describing how Israel's economic development occurred amid intense fighting with the Palestinians and neighboring Arab countries. He reveals how the new state's astonishing growth continued into the early 1970s, and traces this growth to public investment in education and to large foreign transfers.
