About the book
A political scientist analyzes the strategic logic behind suicide terrorism, drawing on a comprehensive database of attacks from 1980 to 2003. The book argues that such campaigns are primarily driven by nationalist goals and foreign occupation, rather than religious fanaticism alone.
