It can take the form of a Molotov Cocktail or a Suicide Bomber
detonating within a crowd. It can be a sophisticated electronic
explosive device or a bomb in a shoe. Today's terrorism threats,
and their constant assault on global security continues to be a
menace of great concern.
Providing a hands-on look inside the ugly, blood-stained world
of global terrorism, Introduction to Terrorism covers the evolution
of terrorism, its growing sophistication, and its cynical
indifference to human life. It begins by covering the history of
terrorism and showing how the threats have changed since the
September 11, 2001 attacks. It examines the methods America has
chosen to guard against and deal with these threats using its
military, government, and civilian agencies.
Illustrating and examining current and future challenges, this
state-of-the-art text follows a flow model developed and
successfully taught in the classroom at several colleges and
universities. Designed to follow the standard academic semester
(one chapter per week), the book's content, style, presentation,
and organization have been class-tested and validated.
