Al-Qaeda by Jason Burke
Shows Islamic militancy to be a far broader phenomenon than previously thought, demolishing the myths that underpin the 'war on terror'. Drawing on secret documents and interviews with intelligence officers, Taliban foot soldiers, militants, mujahedeen commanders and Osama bin Laden's associates, the author reveals the full story of al-Qaeda.
