Overview

This third edition of Historical Dictionary of Terrorism significantly expands on the second edition through a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on major terrorist groups, significant terrorist events, different forms of terrorism, cyber-terrorism, and counterterrorism.

Editorial Reviews

Booklist
This is an accurate, objective, and clearly written resource that will be useful in public and academic libraries.
Reference Reviews
The entries are insightful and clearly written for those new to the subject matter or those who have some prior knowledge. The focus in keeping with terrorism is international, and the geographic span of information and detail is highly impressive….This reference work is highly recommended for public and academic libraries and will be of particular interest to the general reader, as a standard reference resource and for those studying or researching politics or international relations.

Library Journal
Separately, the authors have researched and written about terrorism for either the newspapers or for the U.S. government. Though they reach back into antiquity to include such topics as the Zealots and the "assassins," the majority of their work deals with the 20th century and its explosion of terrorist movements. As the authors explain in the introduction, terrorism is primarily a political act-although the culprits can range from government agencies to "terrorists for hire." The articles are informative and fairly extensive, some covering several pages, and the scope covers not only familiar people and topics (Che, the IRA) but also more obscure concepts (guilt transference) and events ("Black June"). The articles can serve as either a complete answer to a reference question or the basis for further research. The work includes an extensive bibliography and a glossary of abbreviations, extremely helpful since many groups are known by their initials alone. Recommended for both public and academic libraries.-John F. Camenga, Tampa-Hillsborough P.L., Fla.
