What can terrorists possibly hope to achieve by blowing up commuters, bond traders and tourists whom they have never even met? Why do seemingly ordinary young men and women volunteer to turn themselves into human bombs? What can we do to stop them? In What Terrorists Want" Louise Richardson investigates these crucial questions. She delves into the minds of terrorists and demystifies the threat we face today. She draws on her unique contact with real terrorists as well as years of teaching and research at Harvard to show that terrorists are not crazed criminals butrational peoplewilling to exploit their own weaknesses to maximum effect. By introducing us to other terrorists in other times she shows thatwe must look beyond 9/11 and simplistic associations with Islam. What Terrorists Want controversially but convincingly argues that only by understanding the forces that drive terrorism can we hope to contain it. It also shows us why the Global War on Terror is doomed to fail but how with a different strategy we can prevail.
