Review Quotes: (Starred Review) "Kumar's searching and humane account of the global consequences of the U.S. 'war on terror' gets behind the rhetoric and state public relations campaigns in a brisk but thoughtful narrative. . . . An arresting and heartrending work of public protest and valuable social analysis, this work contributes forcefully to a subtle, human-scaled accounting of 21st-century geopolitics."-- "Publishers Weekly"
