The most comprehensive account yet of Osama bin Laden and the militant Muslim terrorist organisation which wreaked havoc around the world.

Peter Bergen, a journalist specialising in investigating terrorism had been tracking Osama bin Laden for years, and was putting the finishing touches to the first edition of this book when the terrorist attacks of September 11th took place. In the course of researching Holy War, Inc. he interviewed bin Laden in his lair, and spoke to scores of sources familiar with the man, from the Saudi exile's friends and associates, to the CIA officials tracking him, to cabinet members of Afghanistan's Taliban. The story is brought fully up to date for this new paperback edition.
