About the Book: The 9/11 attacks represent one of the most pivotal moments in modern history, marking a day when the U.S. witnessed an unprecedented terrorist assault on its soil. On September 11, 2001, a series of coordinated attacks by the Islamic extremist group al-Qaeda resulted in catastrophic loss and changed global geopolitics dramatically. This book delves into the events of that tragic day, illustrating the sequence of assaults that unfolded, and analyzing the profound aftereffects that followed. Understanding 9/11 extends beyond its historical significance; it provides critical insights into the evolution of global security practices, international relations, and the ongoing battle against terrorism.
