Recenzii

'An extraordinary collection of original, penetrating and compellingly written essays, Playing Politics with Terrorism: A User's Guide challenges all our assumptions about the relationship between democracy and terrorism. An eye-opener of a book on the world after 9/11.' -Jessica Stern, Harvard University, author, The Ultimate Terrorists'Brilliant, mind-opening stuff.' -The Independent, chosen as one of DavidCrystal's best books of 2007'This powerful collection of essays is at the same time both a radical and traditionalexamination of the politics of terror. Radical in that it presents terrorismas a complex phenomenon rooted in real life experience-best understoodand combated by open minds with the support of fully-briefed populations.And traditional in that it expects political leaders to tell the truth about terrorinsofar as they can-and that to exploit the fears of the public for politicalgain is as counter-productive as it is currently widespread.'-Crispin Black, former Cabinet Office Intelligence Analyst and author of7-7 The London Bombings: What Went Wrong?
