“A timely and crucial contribution tracing the trail of the Israeli architectural, ecological, and infrastructural destruction of the Gaza Strip. The ruthlessness and inhumanity detailed in this extraordinary book, nonetheless, also hold hope for turning the future soil and grounds into spaces of liberation and reconciliation.” —Ilan Pappé, author of Israel on the Brink: And the Eight Revolutions that Could Lead to Decolonization and Coexistence

“Ungrounding is a brilliant, shocking, and urgent book for our times, as well as a precious warning to future generations.” —Yanis Varoufakis, author of Raise Your Soul: A Personal History of Resistance

“In the face of overwhelming state violence, Forensic Architecture is becoming an indispensable tool of international law and human rights, as well as a new approach to history. Ungrounding is a work of profound moral clarity and scientific precision, based on years of tireless collaboration and advocacy. Urgent and essential reading.” —David Wengrow, co-author of The Dawn of Everything and Pre-architectures

“Ungrounding powerfully reveals the architecture of the genocide in Gaza within its century-long context. But with a forensic architect’s precision, Weizman excavates, reassembles, and ultimately lays the foundations for an architecture of liberation.” —Tareq Baconi, author of Fire in Every Direction: A Memoir

“Ungrounding by Eyal Weizman proves that decolonization is not revenge, but a condition for justice and, in the end, for the liberation of both Palestinians and Israelis.” —Francesca Albanese, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories

“Ungrounding leads us between layers of earth and history, soil and infrastructure, elucidating both the long history of Israeli aggression against Gaza and the histories of Palestinian resistance. . . . Weizman cuts through obfuscations and horror, and helps us to see something of the truth.” —Isabella Hammad author of Recognizing the Stranger: On Palestine and Narrative
