"Absolutely the best survey of Islamic radicalism and its relationship to terrorism and the West. This single volume allows a lay reader to understand the religious and political origins of violent global jihad."―Donald Hamilton, executive director, Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism
"The authors have combined their very impressive area, operational, and academic experiences to make a major contribution to the understanding of Islamic Radicalism and Global Jihad. Their very insightful analysis of the origins, strategies, and organizational dynamics of a major threat to international security and their assessment of the key role of intelligence in meeting the challenge are right on the mark. Moreover they offer a strategy to counter the global jihadist that should be required reading for those policy makers who must not only prevent and deter, but take the offensive against contemporary and future terrorists."―Stephen Sloan, university professor and fellow, Office of Global Perspectives, University of Central Florida
"Islamic Radicalism and Global Jihad is the definitive study on the global jihad movement. To understand the evolving global threat landscape, there is no better book. A must read for scholars and practitioners!"―Rohan Gunaratna, author of Inside Al Qaeda: Global Network of Terror and head of the International Centre for Political Violence and Terrorism Research, Singapore
