"Global Terrorism remains the gold standard for students and professionals seeking a comprehensive and objective global breath with an understanding of terrorism. The authors offer a powerful combination of clarity, and scholarly thunder. This fifth edition is essential reading for courses in political science and security studies and beyond..."– Dr. Tony Piscitelli, PhD, Senior Lecturer, Norwich University, UK"The fifth edition continues the practice of the previous four in providing a comprehensive coverage of terrorism in a global setting, not just on the Middle East and/or Islam. The case study approach provides students with the necessary details on many different types of terrorist groups and other aspects of terrorism, such as weapons, strategies, targets, ideologies, and counterterrorism. Global Terrorism is well written and is unique in its coverage and organization."– Jeffrey Ian Ross, PhD, University of Baltimore, USA"Now in its fully revised and updated fifth edition, Global Terrorism remains the definitive textbook and reference for the study of terrorism and violent non-state actors in the contemporary world. Comprehensive, clear, and authoritative, it is an indispensable resource for students, scholars, and practitioners alike. Highly recommended."– Professor Michael Rainsborough, Academic Principal, Australian War College, Canberra, Australia
