ITEM OVERVIEW
Here, Ali engages the "war against terror"—the clash of fundamentalisms—religious versus imperialism. While both sides claim God on their side, both are hardly equal. One is a product of despair, the other, of empire.
"In this timely and important book, Tariq Ali puts the events of September 11th into sweeping historical perspective. As we have come to expect from him, he is lucid, eloquent, literary, and painfully honest, as he dissects both Islamic and Western fundamentalism." —Howard Zinn.
