First sentence: ON THE MORNING of September 11, 2001, virtually all of us, from ordinary citizens to supposedly well-informed leaders, were shocked to discover that a very small, secretive, and incredibly destructive enemy we knew little about could truly hurt us; that this enemy understood more about the routine functions of our world than many of us did; and that this enemy could infiltrate our physical space with utter ease.
