By A Customer

This review is from: Terrorism Reader (Textbook Binding)

The book takes a fundimental look at the origins and the philosophy of terrorism from ancient times to 1987. It needs to be updated to include the changes of various terrorist organizations and their philosophies to include the use of violence/terror by enviromentalist. Excellent Bibliography for endepth studies and epanded research on the topic of terrorism. Drawback: Dated information

...or Freedom fighter? A must read for anyone interested in the evolution of 20th century incidents. TR provides an in-depth look at 19th century writings and how some manifestos have been integrated into today's environment. A good investment for those in AT circles.
