Terrorism Documents of International and Local Control Volume 96 Cyberterrorism: Evolving Perceptions of the Threat

Terrorism: Documents of International and Local Control is a hardbound series that provides primary-source documents on the worldwide counter-terrorism effort. Chief among the documents collected are transcripts of Congressional and Parliamentary testimony, reports by quasi-governmental organizations, and case law covering issues related to terrorism. The series also includes a subject index and other indices that guide the user through this complex area of the law. Overall, the series keeps users up to date on the panoply of terrorism issues now facing the U.S. and the world.

Cyberterrorism: Evolving Perceptions of the Threat focuses exclusively on the threat of cyberterrorism in the U.S. General Editor Lovelace has for this volume selected authoritative documents demonstrating the current homeland vulnerabilities to such an attack. By presenting these documents and by using his commentary to assess the extent of such threats and vulnerabilities, Lovelace has constructed a valuable one-stop resource for researching the prospect of computer-based and internet-based terrorism.

Doug Lovelace is the Director of the Strategic Studies Institute at the US Army War College. Earlier in his military career, he worked on national security directives. He holds an MBA degree from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University and a JD from Widener School of Law.
