Reviews
Terrorism and organized a crime is a seminal and groundbreaking book that clearly shows the connection between the various terrorist movements around the world and the support provided to them by the criminal community. The fourth edition continues to provide the support that law enforcement and the intelligence and security communities need to better fight the evolving threats. - Jeffrey C. Price, Metropolitan State University of Denver, USA
