"A masterpiece of political analysis." James Ron, Nation; "Eyal Weizman has taken Edward Said's thesis to a new level, generating extraordinary, and at times surreally uncomfortable, conclusions - Weizman's book is of salutary interest." Jay Merrick, Independent; "The power of insight which this work achieves is frankly astonishing." New Humanist; "A passionate jeremiad." John Leonard, Harper's; "The most astonishing book on architecture that I have read in years." Edwin Heathcote, Financial Times. "The author examines the construction of Israel's militarized settlement enterprise from the perspective of urban planning, positing that the displacement of Palestinians has been engineered from a spatial perspective....Weizman is well positioned to carry out such an investigation. He is an Israeli architect and professor of spatial and visual cultures, and director of the Centre for Research Architecture at Goldsmiths, University of London. Weizman is also a Princeton Global Scholar. In the decade since his book came out, Weizmann established the Decolonizing Architecture Art Residency (DAAR) in Beit Sahour, Palestine.The establishment of DAAR and its success highlight the tremendous impact Weizmann's work has had since its release. Hollow Land builds upon increasing attentiveness to urban space and architecture in the social sciences, and its release is to an extent responsible for tremendous growth in this field of study." - Alex Shams, Journal of Palestinian Studies
