Oasis of Dreams Teaching and Learning Peace in a Jewish-Palestinian Village in Israel

Neve Shalom/Wahat Al-Salam (the Hebrew and Arabic words for Oasis of Peace) is a community founded by Jews and Palestinians that is aimed at demonstrating the possibilities for living in peace while maintaining their respective cultural heritages and languages. The village schools represent a unique educational experience: an opportunity for Jewish and Palestinian children to learn together in a Hebrew-Arabic bilingual, bicultural, binational setting. This book, a result of the author's nine year study of the schools in the village, explores the psychological and social dimensions of this important educational endeavor.Feuerverger, Grace is the author of 'Oasis of Dreams Teaching and Learning Peace in a Jewish-Palestinian Village in Israel', published 2001 under ISBN 9780415929394 and ISBN 0415929393.
