We Can Have Peace in the Holy Land by President Jimmy Carter
In this urgent, balanced, and passionate book, Nobel Peace Laureate and former President Jimmy Carter argues that the present moment is a unique time for achieving peace in the Middle East--and he offers a bold and comprehensive plan to do just that. President Carter has been a student of the biblical Holy Land all his life. For the last three decades, as president of the United States and as founder of The Carter Center, he has studied the complex and interrelated issues of the region's conflicts and has been actively involved in reconciling them. He knows the leaders of all factions in the region who will need to play key roles, and he sees encouraging signs among them. Carter describes the history of previous peace efforts and why they fell short. He argues persuasively that the road to a peace agreement is now open and that it has broad international and regional support. Most of all, since there will be no progress without courageous and sustained U.S. leadership, he says the time for progress is now. This is President Carter's call for action, and he lays out a practical and doable path to peace.Jimmy Carter was the 39th President of the United States, author of multiple books, Emory University professor, creator of the Carter Center, and Nobel Peace Prize winner. Carter collaborated with Emory University to found the Carter Center, a non-profit organization that promotes human rights and alleviates human suffering in 75 countries throughout the world. Carter is the only U.S. president. After leaving office, President Obama will be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
