In The Back Channel, Burns recounts, with novelistic detail and incisive analysis, some of the seminal moments of his career.

For decades, Americans have been conditioned to believe "foreign policy" is the policy of prioritzing the interests of foreign nations over American interests.

So what does Trump's "America First" foreign policy doctrine mean in practice? What does putting America first actually look like in terms of our relations with the nearly 200 countries around the globe?

Since the Six-Day War, Israelis have been entrenched in a national debate over whether to keep the land they conquered or to return some, if not all, of the territories to Palestinians. In a balanced and insightful analysis, Micah Goodman deftly sheds light on the ideas that have shaped Israelis' thinking on both sides of the debate about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Contrary to opinions that dominate the discussion, he discovers that the paradox of Israeli political discourse is that both sides are right in what they affirm - and wrong in what they deny.

In The Rise and Fall of Peace on Earth, the eminent foreign policy scholar Michael Mandelbaum examines that remarkable quarter century, describing how and why the peace was established and then fell apart.

This is his illuminating account of how events unfolded, a thrilling journalistic memoir drawing on personal experience, eyewitness accounts, and interviews with intelligence officials from five countries.
