Packed full of in-depth case studies, you will gain an insight into the root causes and catalysts, the recruitment patterns and leading figures in organizations such as the Provisional IRA, Al Qaeda, Hizbollah and the Tamil Tigers. Drawing on Dr John Horgan's vast research into the psychological aspects of political violence, this book will also focus on the psychology of terrorism before analysing the possible responses to this complex phenomenon.
