His book on the Arab-Israeli conflict was the first one-volume study to present the topic from the later 19th century onward rather than beginning treatment from World War II. He has published articles in the areas of modern Egypt, nationalism and theories of nationalism, Anglo-French imperialism and the Middle East in World War I, and on Palestinian and Arab-Israeli affairs, and is frequently consulted for his views by press and media, often overseas.
