'A timely introduction' - Guardian The Islamic resistance movement Hamas was created in 1987, won the elections of the Legislative Council in 2006, and governed the Gaza Strip since 2007.

Challenging the reader's understanding, Palestinian writer Khaled Hroub goes beyond the caricatures of Hamas' leaders and cadre.
