An examination of the causes and effects of terrorism and the complicated issues surrounding homeland security, this thought provoking anthology covers surveillance issues, female terrorist activity, and secret societies as well as Law enforcement and the Muslim community.

The book features a chapter exploring a translated copy of a captured Al-Qaeda Manual and one on the issues of citizen's preparedness in terms of physical readiness and the psychological impacts of terrorist activities around the world.
