What People Say About Our Products
"The Terrorist List is an invaluable reference work for anyone who reads seriously about international terrorism. Building on Edward Mickolus's comprehensive databases and chronologies, this book is the place to go to learn who's who in terrorism. It fills a major gap for every student of the subject."
Paul R. Pillar, Professor of Security Studies, Georgetown University
"This is a must-have book for every serious researcher of terrorism and every research library. Dr. Mickolus has done a tremendous service by painstakingly compiling this invaluable and unique resource. The book is well-structured for readily finding entries."
Todd Sandler, Vibhooti Shukla Professor of Economics and Political Economy, University of Texas at Dallas
"ITERATE is the premier source of information about international terrorism. For over forty years, it has provided the most comprehensive and accurate and up-to-date picture of incidents, actors and the legal outcomes associated with international terrorism world-wide. It is the authoritative source."
Craig Jenkins, Professor of Sociology and Political Science, Ohio State University
"The Terrorist List' is proof in print that Google is not the end all for at-your-finger research. I have used Dr. Mickolus's previous compendiums on terrorism for background information during my tenure as Senior Broadcast Producer for CBS News. The book is a must have for any journalist, if there are any still out there."
Batt Humphreys, former Senior Broadcast Producer, CBS News
