The Peace Brokers: Mediators in the Arab-Israeli Conflict, 1948-1979 . By Saadia Touval. (Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press, 1982. Pp. xiv + 377. $30.00, cloth; $11.50, paper.)

The Peace Brokers is a study of nine mediation attempts of the often arcane and still festering Arab-Israeli conflict. Unlike other types of thirdparty intervention, Touval's mediators "may not employ violence; their intervention is acceptable to both sides in the conflict" (p. 4). A successful mediator is defined as "one who is believed [by whom?] to have contributed to the abatement or resolution of a conflict" (p. 4). Three of the cases examined here are accordingly considered successful: UN Acting Mediator Dr. Ralph Bunche, whose efforts culminated in the 1949 Armistice between Israel and her neighbors; Henry Kissinger's 1973 through 1975 diplomacy, which led to the Egyptian-Israeli and SyrianIsraeli disengagements; and President Carter's 1978 Camp David Accords, which paved the way for the 1979 Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty.
