I am hoping my director orders ARTZEINU. After struggling with an outdated black and white text on Israel I really do appreciate the work you and Josh Barkin did to create an age appropriate, thematic, colorful,fair, interesting book on Israel. I am really looking forward to using it next year. I have just one critique that hopefuly you can take care of during the editing for the second printing. Montesquieu's term "branches" (p. 53) is usually used when there are true separate branches as there are in a Presidential system (America). Israel has a Parliamentary system. The Prime Minister is put into power by the "majority" or in reality the coalition of parties that can form a majority. Thus we do not have the executive in a separate branch. Most of the students use the Magruder American Government textbook in public school and it would be easier for everyone if the "language" is consistant. Thank you again for a marvelous text-and wish me luck tomorrow as I present the book.
