REVIEW: The legitimising of terror fears: Research or Psy Ops?
Abstract
Review of Inside Al Qaeda: Global Network of Terror, by Rohan Gunaratna. Melbourne: Scribe Publications, 2002. Gunaratna's book is on the surface a very impressive collection of much of the data about Al Qaeda. It contains a description of the origins and goals of Al Qaeda, a profile of its main members, a country-by-country description of the 'global network' said to have been developed by Al Qaeda, and a review of the prospects of the international responses to it.
