The chapters of this publication revolve around one
central question: What do we currently know about the transformation
through which an individual becomes a terrorist? Chapters in the first
volume cover central themes in the recruitment of terrorists, with special
emphasis on the psychological and religious appeals of joining a terrorist
organization. The second volume provides a variety of insights on the
training of terrorists (both how and where), and describe these actions
in the context of specific terrorist groups. Contributors to the third
volume focus on the political, social, and economic factors that contribute
to terrorism both globally and within specific countries or regions.
