Root Causes of Suicide Terrorism by Ami Pedahzur

Root Causes of Suicide Terrorism by Ami Pedahzur

The book offers different theoretical and methodological approaches to the understanding of the root causes of suicide attacks.

‘...deals with its political-religious roots, motives, specific characteristics and all other relevant aspects.. It is the most up to date, informative and reliable survey of this phenomenon.’

Walter Laqueur

'This is a useful and important book on a topic that is as

intellectually compelling as it is politically disturbing.'

Mark Juergensmeyer

"If the book does not attain a global view of Root Causes of Suicide Terrorism, it does provide a snapshot of 2005 thinking about suicide attacks that should find its place on every specialist's shelf."--Middle East Journal, Vol 60 No 4, Autumn 2006
