<P>In this book, the author offers a poignant study of the primary national founder of the State of Israel and the first prime minister of Israel. He provides an explication of the making of Israeli democracy in terms of its institutional-legal structures and social-cultural underpinnings. The work connects the formal structures of democracy to the fundamental principles that they were constructed to serve—human freedom and dignity.</P>
