Synopsis

In the aftermath of the terrorist attack on September 11, one question has been on everyone's mind: "How did this happen?" This book seeks to answer this question in all its critical aspects--the motives and actions of the terrorists, the status of the U.S. military, the context of the Middle East, bioterrorism, airport security, diplomatic pressures--and to provide readers with perspective, information, and sound interpretation. The editors of Foreign Affairs have brought together noted experts whose insights make the events of that terrible day more understandable, even as we steel ourselves for the conflicts ahead.

Reviews

Goodreads review by Kyle

This book was produced just after 9/11, and while it still contains much insight and background, it certainly feels dated. It served its purpose in its time, and can be a good starting point for further inquiry. Being a collection of articles, one can take it or leave it at will.......more

Didn't really provide any new insights into the pentagon and world trade centre attacks.......more
