Table of ContentsReviewsExceptionally rich and sophisticated in analysis, Counterterrorism: Reassessing the Policy Response is a much needed addition to the currently available literature and deserves to be read not only by students and academic specialists, but also by security analysts, policy makers and general readers. -Professor George Kassimeris, University of Wolverhampton, UK Ineffective counterterrorism methods do not make us safer, they only divert security resources, undermine civil rights, and erode trust in law enforcement. Benoit Gomis challenges the flawed research, faulty methods, and bias that permeates counterterrorism studies and practice, and his book presents a clear public demand for reform that all governments need to hear. -Michael German, Fellow, Brennan Center for Justice, NYU Law School Author InformationBenoît Gomis is an international security analyst focusing on terrorism and organized crime.
