Content:
In this unique study, Anne Marie Oliver and Paul Steinberg document the world of the suicide bomber, drawing on six months spent living with a family of Palestinian refugees and six years collecting the underground media that have remained largely unseen in the West despite the fact that they have served as indispensable tools in the construction and propagation of the suicide bomber.
