An End to Evil: How to Win the War on Terror By David Frum and Richard Perle Random House; 284 pages; $25.95

Review excerpt:

"There is no middle way for Americans: It is victory or holocaust." When authors use language like that to open up a book, it is a safe bet that what follows will be rather stark and forceful. Such is the case in David Frum and Richard Perle's An End to Evil, which is best described as a dummies' guide to the neo-conservative view of the war on terror.
