It offers conceptualization, theory and original research..." - Ami Pedahzur, University of Texas at Austin "The book offers a detailed and well-presented analysis of deradicalisation processes involving several of the most important Islamist insurgent/terrorist movements today. The manuscript presents very important new insight into how and under which circumstances militant Islamist organizations may deradicalise and renounce political violence. Given the obvious policy-relevance of the analysis as well as its detailed and well-researched presentation of Islamist militancy in Egypt and Algeria, this manuscript will also be very useful in professional training for security /counterterrorism professionals as well as in graduate courses in Middle Eastern studies and graduate courses on international terrorism. The book is impressive." - Brynjar Lia, Norwegian Defence Research Establishment "The only major work on the subject is Omar Ashours The De-Radicalization of Jihadists: Transforming Armed Islamist Movements." - RAND National Security Research Division, 'Deradicalizing Islamist Extremists' Report, 2010, p158
