Rezensionen

'This book is a must read if you want to understand why moderately religious, generally apolitical young men in some Western cities turn into fighters - mujahideen - identifying with others across the world in a politico-religious struggle. Frazer Egerton does not offer a simple account of this transition, but it is a persuasive one.' Ken Booth, Aberystwyth University
