Customer Reviews

Excellent transaction!

I would definitely buy from this seller again. Shipping was quick, and communication was excellent!

Good Introduction to the Area

While this small paperback is becoming dated (published in 2001); it is one of the texts I use in my senior seminar in collective violence and terrorism. The book includes a good chapter on cults, militia, and hate groups. The chapter on terrorism introduces examples to describe vigilante, insurgent, transnational, and state terrorism. Students probably find this categorization to be the most helpful in examining terrorism. Recommended.
