- Summary
- "Coping with Terror argues that strategic responses to terrorism must focus on managing terrorism and its effects on the population rather than eliminating it outright. The author describes personal and collective stresses associated with terror and examines the idea of coping as the key to understanding how policy makers, military personnel, and ordinary citizens deal with these stresses. A nonpolemical approach to a sensitive and serious topic, Coping with Terror provides new perspectives on this global problem."--Jacket.
