The attack on Mumbai showed that we as a nation are inept when it comes to response to terrorism.
MUMBAI SIEGE: Edited by P. C. Dogra; Lancer's Books, PO Box 4236, New Delhi-110048. Rs. 495.
The brutal attack on India's financial capital on the evening of November 26, 2008, like 9/11 in the United States, has spawned abundant literature, most of it bordering on the pedestrian and superficial. This book falls in that category. A compendium of talks delivered at a seminar held in Chandigarh within days of the Mumbai horror, it throws up little that is not already known. However, it deserves some consideration because of the eminence of the participants, who ranged from law enforcement officers and Army generals to academicians.
Inept
