"Based primarily on first-hand interviews, Giustozzi's expansive
new book presents a treasure trove of new and important information
on the Afghan Taliban, and might well be the work to which all
future scholarly explorations of the Taliban will be
compared."--Thomas H. Johnson, Research Professor of National
Security Affairs, Naval Postgraduate School and author of Taliban
Narratives"A fine-meshed and carefully documented analysis of how
the Taliban's military organisation and strategy have evolved since
the movement's defeat in 2001. Uniquely sourced from over 400
interviews, this book will clearly be a standard reference on the
subject."--Astri Suhrke, Senior Researcher, Chr. Michelsen
Institute, Bergen and author of When More is Less: The
International Project in Afghanistan"Giustozzi provides a detailed
and dense account of the Taliban's resilience. [This book] is an
important contribution to the history of the American-led war in
Afghanistan." -- Foreign Affairs
"A detailed description of the changing nature of the war in
Afghanistan over the past two decades, and how the Taliban and its
leaders have responded over time."--CHOICE
"Giustozzi's narrative skill, analytical authority, and
long-standing reputation as an expert on the Taliban and events in
Afghanistan after 2001 are advanced in The Taliban at War."--
