Overview

Terrorism - in scope, depth, and awareness - has become a twentyfirst century global topic. While some nations claim to have it fully or partly under control, some are yet to come to grips with exactly what it is and what to do with or about it. While it has been in existence in some nations for years, some are just beginning to be impacted by it. Regardless, terrorism is undoubtedly a human-inflicted malignant epidemic that is ravaging humanity. The writing of this book was motivated by Mumuni's interest, training, and research. It is an attempt to help unveil and understand the concept of global terrorism in all its ramifications, and its effect on humanity. The book will be of interest to security operatives and strategists, administrators, researchers, students, social critics, the media, religious leaders, and the general public.
