Publisher's Synopsis
Terrorism: The French Revolution to ISIS explores the history of using fear and violence to shape society. From the French Reign of Terror to the French Revolution to the World Wars to modern-day campaigns of terror (like that of ISIS, Boko Haram, and Hezbollah) to specific incidents such as 9/11, the London Tube Bombings, the Boston Marathon Bombing, and , Terrorism examines the motivations that drive political activists to violence, the involvement of governments around the world in their own campaigns, and the role that the media plays in both defining and categorizing exactly who is or is not a terrorist.
