In the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, US allegations that Osama bin Laden’s network was responsible, and the subsequent military attacks on Afghanistan, the Taliban have become the focal point of the West’s difficult relations with the Islamic world. This book helps us understand what has been happening inside the country, the nature of radical Islamic movements, and the very difficult questions ahead which war cannot answer.
