Reviews
"""The book is superbly researched, clearly cited, and provides a wealth of resources for further reading. LoCicero’s stated goal for her book is “to reduce terrorism and reduce prejudice against foreign-born, young Americans, simultaneously.” That’s a tall order, perhaps beyond the reach of a single work, but she has made a significant contribution to the cause. An excellent resource on terrorism for professionals and lay readers alike."" - Kirkus Reviews ""The book makes a number of contributions to the study of terrorism and to our understanding of the challenges that we face. It is written in an accessible language that will make it attractive to students and non-students alike and its content will generate debate and discussion. . . . Why “Good Kids” Turn into Deadly Terrorists represents a useful addition to the literature on terrorism and political violence and reminds the reader that 'we are not doomed by nature to violence'."" - Behavioral Sciences of Terrorism and Political Aggression"
