Summary Annotation <div><p>All governments face problems and are judged by their ability to solve them and the policies they develop in doing so.&#160; Compared with other Western democracies, Israel has faced a devastating number of problems of unusual severity in a relatively short time: war, terrorism, heavy immigration, unsettled boundaries, economic stresses, internal disputes about ethnicity and religion, and the lingering scars of the Holocaust and other persecutions.&#160; Sharkansky&rsquo;s analysis of the Israeli government&rsquo;s routines and methods for coping with such an array of difficulties, from simple to complex to intractable, offers general insights into how governments make policy in a democracy.</p></div>
