Encyclopaedia of Terrorism in the World Volume 5 Vols. Set [Hardcover]

Terrorism is the most dangerous and sinister threat to the international community today, and has been so for the last some years. In a manner of speaking, it is veritably an existential threat to the mankind. The most extensive, persistent and aggressive genre comes from Jihadist terrorism, which is already spread the world over, from Indonesia in the east to the united states in the west and Scandinavia in the north to Australia in the south. The book deals with the scouge in some select countries of the world, with its implications for the existing world order. The peace and integrity of the world indeed depends upon the way the ruling classes in these countries deal, face and defeat this man-made catastrophe perpetrated by some 'evil'minds. This multi-volume book is a comprehensive study of this 'evil' in all its aspects. Being the first of its kind, given its very size and depth and expanse of the treatment of this all-important subject, it is a unique book to hit the market. For this very reason, it can claim to be a handy reference work for the cognoscente and the common reader interested in the subject. About The Author:- Col.
