Offers knowledge about the origins of suicide terrorism and strategies to stop it. This title examines every suicide terrorist attack worldwide from 1980 to 2009.

Trade Review
"I commend this book to both scholars and policy makers with a serious interest in US national security policy." (Lee H. Hamilton, Vice Chair of the 9/11 Commission) "Robert A. Pape and James K. Feldman are the world's experts on suicide terrorism. In this carefully researched yet highly readable book, the authors lay bare the causes of suicide terrorism and demonstrate that our current military strategy serves only to breed a new generation of terrorists. This book is a must-read for anyone who cares about America's role in the world." (Steven D. Levitt, author of Freakonomics)"
