Terrorists constantly present new challenges to law enforcement,
emergency response teams, security planners, and others involved in
counterterrorism. Since the last edition of this volume was
published, additional atrocities have occurred and new threats have
surfaced. The fourth edition of The Counterterrorism Handbook:
Tactics, Procedures, and Techniques provides the latest
developments and offers new insights on the War on Terror. Updated
to reflect an increased focus on terrorism in public
transportation, this volume provides an understanding of the
strategies, tactics, and techniques required to tackle terrorism as
it exists today. It illustrates essential topics such as the
elements common to all terrorism, bomb threats, risk assessment,
hostages, and weapons of mass destruction. It also presents case
studies of some of the most notorious terrorist incidents,
including both World Trade Center attacks, Oklahoma City,
Centennial Olympic Park, the U.S. Embassy, the U.S.S. Cole, and
attacks in Madrid, London, and Glasgow. The only way to effectively
deal with terrorism is to have a thorough understanding of its
present-day characteristics - who is involved and what weapons and
tactics they are likely to use. In language friendly to first
responders, this volume presents a comprehensive strategy of how to
deal with a whole gamut of possible terrorist incidents. Covering
everything from bombings and hostage-taking to nuclear terrorism,
the book describes in specific detail what needs to be done before,
during, and after an event. Armed with this information, those
charged with protecting the public will be better equipped to face
myriad threats.
