Review :
`Richard Clutterbuck's recent books on terrorism, drug trafficking and the relevant technological issues are nothing if not wide ranging. Therein lies the secret of his success and the value of his work both to students and the general reader.' - Conflict Bulletin `... fascinating tour of every aspect of modern conflict ...' - Times Higher `Dr Clutterbuck has displayed a mastery in his knowledge of recent events and technical developments. His updates on specific conflicts are admirably balanced and perceptive, yet are accomplished with brevity and tight organization ... of value both to the educated general reader and the professional security expert.' - Professor Paul Wilkinson, University of St. Andrews `Throughout the book the author has supplied excellent signposts making for quick and easy reference on any subject, in addition to an index which works well. The publishers are to be congratulated on supplying a handy and tough little volume which will withstand library wear and tear.' - Peter Janke, RUSI Journal
