Longitudes and Attitudes

Exploring the World Before and After September 11



Longitudes and Attitudes brings together reportage and reflections by one of the world's most admired journalists about the state of the world leading up to and after September 11, 2001 - the most momentous news story of our time. Travelling throughout the Middle East and Europe, Friedman talks to men and women in bazaars, schools and alleyways, as well as the world's leading political figures, developing and refining his unique perspective on the new kind of war the West finds itself fighting.
