Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
"This volume succeeds in de-mystifying the literature on terrorism. The essays and case studies provide an insightful critique of writers who focus exclusively on non-state, non-Western terrorism , , , this is a book that should be included in all discussions purporting to deal with contemporary international politics and U.S. foreign policy--as a positive antidote to uncritical celebration of Western success stories." -- James Petras, State University of New York, Binghamton
