BOOKS ON AL-QAEDA, MILITANT ISLAMISTS AND TERRORISM

Have you read Al-Qaeda's Armies: Middle East Affiliate Groups & The Next Generation of Terror by Jonathan Schanzer? From Dan Darling's post, My shameless plug for Jonathan Schanzer. [Via Command-Post.org.]

To simplify this entire post into one sentence, Jonathan Schanzer is a superb counter-terrorism analyst and his book, Al-Qaeda's Armies: Middle East Affiliate Groups & The Next Generation of Terror is something that should probably be on any aspiring terror watcher's reading list. The broader context of the post, however, deals with all of the terror literature that has cropped up since 9/11 and why I think that we need more books of this nature in stores.
