'This fascinating book is required reading for all with an interest in understanding extremism and martyrdom in modern Europe. Dr Herrington offers a profound insight into the theology, theory, psychology, and political aspirations of those pursuing Islamist terrorism. He provides a compelling portrait of how heresy has taken hold, and of the dangers it presents. Anger with terrorists is not enough for dealing with this contemporary and severe risk to public safety and national security: understanding the motive forces behind it is essential. That understanding is increased by this excellent book.'-- Lord Carlile of Berriew, CBE, QC, former Independent Reviewer of Terrorism Legislation, UK
