Fawaz Gerges' book on al Qaeda and the jihadist movement has become a classic in the field since it was published in 2005. Revisiting The Far Enemy in this new edition, Gerges shows that not only have the jihadists split ranks, but that voices from within the ultra-religious right, those that previously supported al Qaeda, are condemning its tactics as violent, unethical, and out of accord with the true meaning of jihad.
