Strategies of terrorism
The future of Al-Qaeda after the death of Bin Laden
Changes in the Middle East
New case studies on Hizbollah, Afghanistan/Pakistan, Aum Shinrikyo (Japan), Militia movement in the US
The unique combination of a genuinely historical focus and truly global coverage makes this an ideal introductory textbook for anyone studying terrorism.
