“Rather than being a blueprint to be followed in every detail, The Arc: A Formal Structure for a Palestinian State is designed to provide helpful ideas that Palestinians and other involved parties can study and develop further to best meet the needs of the Palestinian people. Provided through the generous support of the RAND Corporation, The Arc: A Formal Structure for a Palestinian State is part of a multivolume study that offers the most comprehensive recommendations ever made for the success of an independent Palestinian state.”

“This book builds on exciting advances in clinical research on troubled relationships. Given the overwhelming research showing that relationships play a role in regulating neurobiology and genetic expression and are critical for understanding schizophrenia, conduct disorder, and depression among other disorders, relational processes must be a part of any empirically based plan for revising psychiatric nosology in DSM-V.”
