Overview
Global terrorism in the 21st century threatens the foundations of secular democracies and directly challenges global security thereby raising new and critical issues that transcend national borders. This two-volume reference carefully examines threats such as Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) terrorism, agro-environmental terrorism, and energy-related terrorism, and discusses technologies and strategies-such as the use of biometrics, data mining, information systems, psychological profiling, and terrorists rehabilitation efforts-to mitigate these threats.
