Description
Does Terrorism Work? A History by Richard English explores one of the most significant security threats of our time. For thirty years, terrorism has been a subject of intense study and debate. This book brings together a wealth of interview material with former terrorists and those involved in counter-terrorism to examine four key terrorist organizations: al-Qaida, the Provisional IRA, Hamas, and ETA. By understanding how terrorism works, we can begin to tackle this complex issue more effectively. English's nuanced insight into the ways in which terrorism operates provides a valuable perspective on one of the most challenging issues of our time.
