A review by bethanharcourt
The Psychology of Terrorism by John Horgan

4.0

An interesting read that brings us back to the starting point of what we actually know about terrorism (spoiler: not a lot). I think it brings up a lot of good questions about past research, and also probably more importantly highlights the gaps of knowledge that we so clearly have in relation to psychological research into terrorism. There is a lot of research that could be done in this area, and it would be good to see what updates there are since the publication of this book. I really need to find some more recent books (but they tend to be crazy expensive).
