He relates his experiences and research on two-track diplomacy and the two-state solution, covering the efforts from 1979 to 1988 to involve Jordan in the peace process; the multitrack approach to Israeli-Palestinian negotiations from 1989 to 1991 based on the lessons learned from the first period; and the conceptual preparations for the 1993 Oslo negotiations, the policy and negotiating options tested during the period of 1991 to 1993, and the negotiations, with emphasis on the backchannel negotiating efforts, its successes and limitations, and the failure of the concept and replacement by a more conservative approach. Subsequent chapters outline the work on principles and guidelines for a Permanent Status Agreement during 1993 to 1996, how it did not obtain its political goal, and lessons learned; the multitrack diplomacy work that influenced Netanyahu and the Palestinians to accept proposals to conclude the Hebron Protocol and its attached “Note for the Record” for partial withdrawal of Israel from Hebron, and the Wye River Agreement, providing for Israeli Further Redeployment from 13 percent of the West Bank territory; Ehud Barak's attempt to conclude a Permanent Status Agreement between 1999 and 2001; the events following the breakdown of Israeli-Palestinian Permanent Status negotiations between 2001 and 2003 and the Economic Cooperation Foundation's role; the policymaking process that led to Israel's Disengagement Plan from Gaza and the Northern West Bank and a second attempt to reach a Permanent Status Agreement; and the Kerry Initiative, its motivation, and Israeli and Palestinian ideas that may support or impede US efforts.
