“In this compact and critically important guide, Weinberg displays vast knowledge, humour, good sense, and wisdom. An indispensable addition to the literature.”
Jessica Stern, Lecturer in Public Policy, Kenney School Of Government, and author of Terror In The Name Of God
From al-Qaeda to the French Revolution, Global Terrorism investigates the history of terrorist actions and the way the world has developed in response.
What drives someone to become a suicide bomber? Who are al-Qaeda and what do they want? What happens when the media becomes part of the story?
Author and UN Security advisor Leonard Weinberg answers these and other questions in an exploration that ranges from the French Revolution to the death squads of Colombia, and reveals how terrorism has affected government policy, military actions and holiday destinations.
This audiobook is essential for anyone worried about public security or seeking to gain a deeper understanding of where terrorism comes from, how it works and where it ends.
