(Hardback)

Arguing that Russia is the birthplace of modern terrorism, this book uses the nation as a case study of psycho-historical patterns of worldwide terrorist activity during the past century. It shows how, in Russia and elsewhere, terrorists' objectives have degenerated from punishment of individual adversaries.

(Paperback)

Examines the explosion of terrorist activity that took place in the Russian empire from the years just prior to the turn of the century through 1917, a period when over 17,000 people were killed or wounded by revolutionary extremists.
