Book Information

An account of the modern history of Afghanistan and the complex mosaic of mujahidin movements and factions which opposed the Soviet military intervention. This book presents the unique and complicated character of an Islamic revivalist movement like the Taliban, asking how the international community can and should deal with the conflict between Western thinking and the Taliban's interpretation of Islamic values.
