Thanks for the shout out! Can we quote that on the marketing pages? (Just kidding.)
But seriously, this particular offering does seem a bit odd except perhaps in the context of what would be a slow-rolling parts liquidation.
I can think of a few people or States who might like to get their hands on one...will be interesting to see who the takers are in 2024 and what kind of volume this sort of deal supports.
Nice one! I think "outlive" tops my 2023 non-fiction list as well.
Regarding learning about the Israeli-Arab conflict, I recently listened to a very interesting EconTalk episode on the topic that I'm happy to recommend: https://www.econtalk.org/an-extraordinary-introduction-to-the-birth-of-israel-and-the-arab-israeli-conflict-with-haviv-rettig-gur/. The guest wrote a book entitled "Letters to my palestinian neighbor", which I haven't read, but I imagine it's excellent.
