These resources are derived from the U.S. government, libraries, international agencies, government and private non-U.S. agencies and institutes, and academic-based domestic organizations. No one definition of terrorism can be applied to all the databases referenced herein. As the National Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism states on its website: "There is no universally accepted definition of terrorism and even when people agree on a definition of terrorism, they sometimes disagree about whether or not the definition fits a particular incident." () In instances where a specific database has adopted a definition of terrorism, the report so notes. This report indicates the focus of each database, including whether or not it is restricted to a particular region of the world, but it is not the role of the authors to present any bias that may be reflected in the selection of data.

This book expands the scope of risk management beyond insurance and finance to include accounting risk, terrorism, and other issues that can threaten an organization. It approaches risk management from five perspectives: in addition to the core perspective of financial risk management, it addresses perspectives of accounting, supply chains, information systems, and disaster management. It also covers balanced scorecards, multiple criteria analysis, simulation, data envelopment analysis, and financial risk measures that help assess risk, thereby enabling a well-informed managerial decision making.The book concludes by looking at four case studies, which cover a wide range of topics. These include such practical issues as the development and implementation of a sound risk management structure; supply chain risk and enterprise resource planning systems in information systems, and disaster management.

Terrorism is a multi dimensional phenomenon and this publication aims at comprehending it. This book has unique characteristics in terms of its focus on different issues; it has a comprehensive focus on the conceptualization of terrorism and understanding of it. It does not only explain the concept, it also addresses the important issues which help us to really understand why and how individuals commit such an act. Issues range from social and psychological analysis of a terrorist behavior to extremist subcultures and globalization. This publication also successfully reviews and analyzes underlying causes of terrorism and what really makes it valuable is that the chapters present the topics with relevant data which is current and up-to-date. Issues such as inequality, globalization, immigration, gender, and democracy are analyzed with research involving comprehensive data analysis.

It reflects the experience and knowledge of the authors most of whom have both academic and practical experience in the field.
