Description
Based on her vast research, Stern lucidly explains how terrorist organizations are formed by opportunistic leaders who, using religion as both motivation and justification, recruit the disenfranchised. She depicts how moral fervor is transformed into sophisticated organizations that strive for money, power, or attention and suggests how terrorism might most effectively be countered.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"A valuable and much-needed perspective to the problem of religious violence." (Publishers Weekly)
"Cogent analysis of methodologies and structures....Serious and provocative..." (New York Times Book Review)
"[Stern's] up-close portraits allow readers to glimpse the fierce alienation and the festering grudges that drive desperate men (and a few women) to embrace violent theologies." (Booklist)
