Decisions in Crisis: Israel, 1967 and 1973 explores the intricate dynamics of decision-making during two pivotal crises in Israeli history: the Six-Day War of 1967 and the Yom Kippur War of 1973. This comprehensive study delves into the psychological, political, and strategic factors that shaped Israeli leaders’ responses under the intense pressures of international crisis. By examining decision flows, military balances, and coping mechanisms, the book reveals patterns of behavior and stress responses unique to state actors in moments of existential threat.
