It should be read carefully, and pondered. -- Noam Chomsky Talking to the Enemy is an important book, by turns fascinating, dense, scientific, debatable, illuminating. -- David Aaronovitch The Times Scott Atran is one of the very few persons who understand religion and have figured out that religion is not about belief and cannot be naively replaced without severe side effects. -- Nassim Nicholas Taleb, Author Of The Black Swan
