This book is an excellent primer for those studying the various disciplines of terrorism. Professors are well advised to consider use of this book in their required reading list. It is well organized, well documented, and uses just about the right amount of examples, most of them from actual events. I especially appreciated the way each chapter gives you an idea of what you should take away from it. The only real drawback is a minor one. It tends to read a little heavy sometimes. Give yourself some time to digest each piece before moving on and you will be OK. Bottom Line: When you finish this book, you will have a clearer understanding of the concepts, motivations, and philosophies of not only terrorism, but also counter- and anti- terrorism, and some of the contemporary issues surrounding modern terrorism. Well Done!!
