One of the things I like about international travel is that airports and airplanes are great places to get some reading in. One of the books I read this past trip was Son of Hamas by Mosab Hassan Yousef. This book quickly had me hooked and I had trouble putting it down. It is an autobiographical look at the life of a young Palestinian man whose father is one of the founding members of Hamas. The book follows his journey from being a young dedicated follower of Hamas, to becoming an agent for the Israeli government, and finally his journey from following Islam to following Jesus. I found this book very interesting and insightful, regardless of one's views on the Israel/Palestine situation.
