How Did This Happen? Terrorism and the New War is edited by the editor and managing editor of Foreign Affairs, published by the Council on Foreign Affairs. The journal is often described by its publishers and others as "the most influential periodical in print." Their book is an anthology of nearly two dozen articles written in response to the attacks on the World Trade Center, Pentagon and United Airlines Flight 93 on September 11, 2001. They were written by Fouad Ajami, a professor of Middle Eastern studies at The Johns Hopkins University; Karen Armstrong, the noted authority on Islam; Samuel Berger, former National Security Advisor; Wesley Clark, former Supreme Allied Commander, Europe; Joseph S. Nye, Jr., former Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intenrational Security Affairs and Chair of the National Intelligence Council, and others of similar eminence. Collectively, the articles cover all aspects of the attacks, from the motivations of the terrorists to the repercussions of their acts. The book was in the stores within a month or so of the attacks. That may account for its lack of an index. |
