Reflections From Palestine
A Journey of Hope

Reflections from Palestine tells the story of life under Israeli occupation. The book opens at the outset of 1967 "Six-Day" war" and describes the relentless series of "temporary measures" that became the binding, suffocating reality of occupation leading up to and following the Oslo Accords. Khoury explains the wide-ranging social and political problems facing Palestinians under occupation through the sweet and sorrowful experiences of family and community life.

Khoury has been an active community volunteer worker throughout most of her life. She is a founding member of the Board of Trustees of Birzeit University and Sabeel Ecumenical Liberation Theology Centre. She earned recognition from local NGOs and a citation of merit award from the alumni association of Southwestern University.

She was married to the late Yousef Khoury who passed away in 2004, and lives in East Jerusalem close to her two children Dina and Suhail, and her seven grandchildren.

تاريخ موجز للزمان
رحلة، شيقة وممتعة معًا، يقوم بها البروفسور ستيفن هوكينغ ( أستاذ الرياضيات الذي يشغل الكرسي نفسه الذي كان يشغله نيوتن في كمبردج ) عبر دروب غامضة في الزمان والكون وطبيعتهما، والحركة والفضاء والكواكب والنجوم والمجرات.
ومع كل الصعوبات التي تعترض كل باحث في هذه المجالات، ورغم المرض العضال الذي ألمّ به، والذي ربطه بكرسي ذي عجلات، وجعله غير قادر حتى على الإمساك بالقلم.. فإن ستيفن هوكينج استطاع أن يقدم في كتابه هذا إجابات متماسكة عن أسئلة مهمة وأساسية خيّرت وما زالت تحيّر العلماء، فضلًا عن القراء والمهتمين.
هل للكون حدود؟ هل يمكن للكون أن ينكمش بدلًا من أن يتمدد؟ هل يرتدّ الزمان فيرى البشر موتهم قبل ميلادهم؟ هل للكون بداية و/أو نهاية .. الخ.
إن إجابات المؤلف، المتعمقة والبسيطة في آن، جعلت هذا الكتاب يلقى إقبالًا منقطع النظير، وجعله يتربع على قائمة أعلى المبيعات لفترة لم يحتلها كتاب من قبله، كما تُرجم إلى أربعين لغة.
