Summary, etc. Terrorism is a phenomenon which the modern world has learned to fear as hardly a day passes without news of fresh terrorist assaults. Any one of us can become the victim in acts of indiscriminate violence planned to further a political cause. We are all at risk. This front line account of modern terrorism in all its varieties is particularly timely because of the dramas of the last twelve months.<br/><br/>In War Without End, Christopher Dobson and Ronald Payne provide an in-depth look at every aspect of terrorism today. Here is a cool, concise assessment of the new forces unleashed in the 1980s. It traces the order of battle of Palestinian and Shi'ite gangs now tormenting Europe and the United States, but is not confined to Islamic terror. The authors analyse tactics and motives of European organizations. They provide new insight into the eccentricities of terror bosses. This book scans the urban killing fields of France and Belgium, Germany, Italy and Spain, profiles the Irish Republican Army, and surveys the connivance of the Kremlin.<br/><br/>Terrorism world-wide has reached epidemic proportions. Can the perils be contained? This book is essential reading for ordinary men and women baffled and alarmed by the implications and complexities of the terror war. It also answers an urgent need for specialized knowledge of the subject in universities, government services and the security forces. It offers an invaluable Who's Who of active terror groups and a chronology of their major assaults.
