Reviews

"For its historical and political examination of terrorism, Inside Terrorism is a valuable work... It falls into the category of 'must read' at least for anyone who wants to understand how we can respond to international acts of terror." -- Raymond Bonner, New York Times Book Review , reviewing a previous edition or volume "A revised and expanded edition of the RAND scholar's classic work." -- Atlantic Monthly "Hoffman's more rigorous appraisal, ought to be required reading as the rhetoric mounts this campaign season." -- Aziz Huq, American Prospect "A must read to all academics or practitioners who are dealing with the issue of terrorism." -- mindef.gov.sg "Any collection strong in terrorist literature and military history will find Hoffman's analysis of ongoing importance." -- Bookwatch "The most widely read book on terrorism [Its] comprehensiveness will greatly benefit its readers." -- Joshua Sinai, The Washington Times "One of the Journal of Counterterrorism & Homeland Security International's 25 Top Books for Today's Bookshelf on Terrorism."
