Reviews

The comparative analysis of terrorist financing will be of value to both practitioners and academics. Dr Anthony Richard, Reader in Criminology University of East London It has become somewhat twee to speak of the need to inform present day actions by referring to the historical past. However, as Dr Ridley ably demonstrates, through his comprehensive and lucid analysis of Michael Collins, there is clearly a great deal to learn about the characteristics and mitigation of modern day terrorist financing from an exploration of the life of arguably one of its earliest proponents.
