The attacks of September 11, 2001, were a calamity on a scale few
had imagined possible. In their aftermath, we exaggerated the men
who perpetrated the attacks, shaping hasty and often mistaken
reporting into caricatures we could comprehend -- monsters and
master criminals equal to the enormity of their crime. In reality,
the 9/11 hijackers were unexceptional men, not much different from
countless others. It is this ordinary enemy, not the caricature,
that we must understand if we are to have a legitimate hope of
defeating terrorism.Using research undertaken in twenty countries
on four continents, Los Angeles Times correspondent Terry McDermott
provides gripping, authoritative portraits of the main players in
the 9/11 plot. With brilliant reporting and thoughtful analysis,
McDermott brings us a clearer, more nuanced, and in some ways more
frightening, understanding of the landmark event of our time.
