From Time Immemorial

Book • 1984
In 'From Time Immemorial', Joan Peters presents a thesis that much of the Arab population in Palestine during the early 20th century was not indigenous but rather recent immigrants drawn by economic opportunities created by Jewish settlers.

The book sparked intense debate and criticism regarding its demographic claims and historical interpretations.

Despite initial positive reviews, it was later widely criticized for methodological flaws and misinterpretation of data.
