Martin, who teaches a course on terrorism and extremism at California State U., Dominguez Hills, presents a multidisciplinary exploration of contemporary terrorism to help professionals and undergraduate and graduate students in courses in terrorism, homeland security, international security, criminal justice administration, political and armed conflict, social environments, and other areas develop the knowledge and skills needed to assess terrorism in general and incidents in particular. The textbook focuses on the post-World War II era and the nations, movements, and individuals who have engaged in terrorist violence, and its types and causes. This edition has new and updated theories, cases, and incidents, and new photos, updated tables, and enhanced graphics. It includes a new chapter on homeland security (with American and European perspectives); new discussions of contemporary topics like the Patriot movement, criminological explanations of terrorism, cyberwar, and armed drone aircraft assassinations; and new research and examples, such as the deaths of Osama bin Laden and Anwar al-Awlaki.
