Understanding Al Qaeda: The Transformation of War

By Mohammad-Mahmoud Ould Mohamedou

Why does Al Qaeda attack the West? What are they trying to achieve? This incisive book argues that it's essential for the West to take a new approach to dealing with Al Qaeda. The 'war on terror' is failing, and only serves to recruit more terrorists to Al Qaeda's cause.
Offering a cogent analysis of Al Qaeda's development, starting with its creation almost twenty years ago, Mohamedou explains that there is a clear strategy to Al Qaeda's actions -- and how best the international community can deal with this new kind of warfare.
There is a great deal of resistance to a scientific, dispassionate understanding of Al Qaeda. This is the first book to examine the central tenents of the organisation and its demands and -- most importantly -- how it may be possible to achieve a peaceful future.
