Terrorism and Counterterrorism Reviews

One of the best and most informed examinations of terrorism and counterterrorism to date.... I highly recommend it. Reflecting both cutting-edge theories/approaches and the authors' real-world experiences, this book has a decided advantage over others in the field. -Joshua Sinai, Kiernan Group
