Terrorism, Intelligence and Homeland Security introduces students to domestic and foreign terrorism and international responses. The authors take a balanced approach to exploring national challenges, including securing the country while safeguarding civil and personal liberties. Simultaneously historical and contemporary, the text examines the interplay of terrorism, intelligence and homeland security through the lens of key people, ideas, organizations and movements.

The 3rd Edition has been updated thoroughly to reflect recent events, with additional emphasis on homeland security topics. Areas receiving new coverage include the technical aspects of intelligence analysis in today’s automated world and the individual federal agencies tasked with strategic homeland security missions.
