Seller's Description:
Kistler, James E. (Cover Art) Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear and soiling. v. [1], 56, [2] p. Endnotes. From an on-line posting: "Islamic fundamentalism is growing at such a rapid rate that many believe it threatens to take over the Middle East. To prevent this, enormous resources have been summoned, not only from within the region, but in the West as well. The author concludes by building a theory about fundamentalism, which implies a need to redirect policy for coping with it. Dr. Pelletiere maintains that the solution is not to try to crush the movement--that has been attempted numerous times and consistently has failed. Dr. Stephen C. Pelletiere was an intelligence officer monitoring the Iran-Iraq war. Dr. Pelletiere s current research deals with America s Dual Containment policy. He holds a B.A. in English from the University of Vermont, and a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of California-Berkeley."
