After months of relentless news about terrorism - anthrax - war and the hunt for Osama bin Laden - our national conversation has taken a dramatic shift. Reflection has superceded our initial grief and anger - as we try to understand how the nightmare of 9/11 will affect us - our loved ones and our country in the long term. To capture the cutting edge of that conversation - AlterNet has released After 9/11: Solutions for a Saner World. The well-rounded collection of 42 articles untangles the knot of our new post-9/11 landscape - tackling every subject from civil liberties to Islamic fundamentalism to economics to sex. ''After 9/11 answers the once-unanswerable questions and envisions a once-unimaginable future - '' says AlterNet's executive editor Don Hazen. ''Its essays provide the context people need to understand how the terrorist attacks have changed their individual lives and what every one of us can do to prevent future attacks.'' Some of the essays are controversial - like Tamim Ansary's ''The Taliban -- An Afghan American Speaks - '' which sparked a national debate culminating in the New York Times Magazine. Others are inspirational - like Bill Moyer's patriotic call to re-mobilize America's citizenry. Eleven of the essays were written exclusively for the book - to update the national consciousness since the first few months after the attacks. The others were carefully selected from the thousands of articles featured on AlterNet in the months after the terrorist attacks.
