SEATTLE — Deepak Tripathi's most recent book, "Breeding Ground: Afghanistan and the Origins of Islamist Terrorism" (Potomac Books) raises several issues, both within and outside of its content. It is based on research for a doctoral dissertation that did not qualify.
Tripathi, a former BBC producer, is immensely proud of this volume, even though it is associated with a tumultuous experience at the University of Sussex, a renowned British university.
For a while, things had gone according to plan, and the future seemed promising. Tripathi was told to prepare for his graduation by his supervisor, Stephen Burman, Ph.D., dean of the School of Humanities.
