...clad, uneducated North Africans to Israel's westernized, Hebrew-speaking official culture is the task of decades. Cowan cites many fascinating individual cases to show the kinds of prejudice and frustration that arise when German meets Tunisian in the Promised Land.

It is spreading out from simply supplying plastic to molding plastic products. It now sells 12,000 different items from alkali to nylon zippers and intends to expand its finished-product lines. Such adventuresomeness seems only natural to a company whose birth certificate is a piece of steamship stationery...
