What is the answer to global terrorism? The fundamental point about terrorism is that it is violence designed to achieve political gain by spreading terror. Terrorism is essentially asymmetric and works by cowing people into submission, which is why it can be answered. The fight against terror takes place both in conflict zones and in our minds. In this book, world expert Paul Wilkinson answers questions about terrorism, including what terrorists want, how to defeat them, and the future of terrorism. There is no one-size-fits-all solution; instead, it is a multi-headed beast constantly mutating and adapting to changes.
