Synopsis Former U.S. President and Nobel Peace Prize winner Jimmy Carter returns to a topic he has written about before, notably in his controversial PALESTINE PEACE NOT APARTHEID. Carter has a long-term relationship with the Middle East going back to the treaty he brokered between Israel and Egypt in 1978, and he knows many of the key players on all sides. Carter revisits the negotiations of the past, identifying where things went off track, and, in an index, he includes key agreements that can be the basis for further negotiations. Without glossing over the very real difficulties in the region, he cites the Barack Obama presidency, the appointment of George Mitchell, and the key role of European nations as optimistic signs--and, he identifies several steps that need to be taken to achieve a lasting peace.
