This book is an analysis of the wider background to the terrorist attacks of September 11th, which examines the reasons for such violent hatred of the United States and the gulf between American perceptions of its own society and those of other nations. The book explores the historical roots of anti-Americanism in Britain and Europe and focuses in detail on the growth of militant anti-American ideologies and movements in the Islamic and Middle Eastern world. It provides a balanced and much-needed account of American foreign policy, anti-Americanism, post-Cold War politics and Islamic fundamentalism and will be essential reading for anyone trying to understand the background to the war on terror.
