The Thistle and the Drone
In the wake of the 9/11 attacks, the United States declared war on terrorism. More than ten years later, the results are decidedly mixed. Here world-renowned author, diplomat, and scholar Akbar Ahmed reveals an important yet largely ignored result of this war: in many nations it has exacerbated the already broken relationship between central governments and the largely rural Muslim tribal societies on the peripheries of both Muslim and non-Muslim nations. The center and the periphery are engaged in a mutually destructive civil war across the globe, a conflict that has been intensified by the war on terror. Conflicts between governments and tribal societies predate the war on terror in many r...
The Bin Laden Papers
An inside look at al-Qaeda from 9/11 to the death of its founder—told through the words of Bin Laden and his closest circle As seen on 60 Minutes “A comprehensive, meticulously constructed and eye-opening look at bin Laden as husband, father and leader-in-hiding. . . .

TACTICAL COUNTERTERRORISM
Police officers on the beat, officers on patrol, all cops - local, state, tribal and federal, 750,000 strong - doing what they do every day are the first and most effective line of defense against terrorist acts committed in the Homeland. This manual is designed to overcome the failure of our national counter-terrorist strategy to better utilize local cops in homeland security by providing essential and practical knowledge local officers can use to identify terrorist precursor activities and more effectively interdict and prevent terrorist attacks from occurring. The goal is to acquaint officers with proactive “first preventer” knowledge and tactics so they can make police counterterrori...
Counterterrorism and Investigative Detention
Counterterrorism and Investigative Detention explores the practice of investigative detention of terrorist suspects in the legal systems of the United States, the United Kingdom, and France. In addition to illuminating the characteristics, capabilities, and limitations of various investigative detention regimes, this book examines ways in which international law and national security imperatives have served as vectors for change and convergence in these otherwise divergent legal systems.
Islamic Financial Contracts
Islam encourages business and financial transactions as a way of securing the basic needs for all human beings, but these need to be conducted in accordance with the principles contained in the Qur’ān and Sunnah. However, these legal concepts are not classified subject-wise, and the verses on commercial law, like all other topics, are scattered throughout the Qur’ān, making it difficult for readers to gain a full understanding of the topic. This, therefore, is the first comprehensive book to demystify Islamic contract law and specifically Islamic financial contracts, and to examine its roots and history. The book is written in a clear style to allow for a greater understanding of the m...
The Saudi Amazon Blues
Hey there ! My name is Zainab Al-Shamrani. I was born in Ottawa, Ontario, to Saudi Arabian Shiite Muslim immigrant parents. I'm not like the other Hijab-wearing, docile and polite Muslim girls you're probably used to seeing. I can probably kick your butt. You see, I've been wrestling since High School and I routinely defeat both male and female opponents in the Wrestling Club at Algonquin College. After romantic disasters with Yemeni stud Khaled Saleh and Canadian athlete Dillon Hendricks, I basically swore off men. And then along came Jethro Philemon, a sexy brother from Carthage, Missouri, who took me down on the mat. And I, um, kind of liked it. As different as we are from each other, Jethro truly gets me, and he's kind of cute, too. I'm starting to fall for him. Yikes. Wish me luck !
