"What Makes a Terrorist?" by Shelley Tougas explores the complex motivations behind individuals who engage in acts of terrorism. Through a combination of real-life case studies, psychological analysis, and sociopolitical context, the book delves into the ways in which personal experiences, beliefs, and societal influences intertwine to drive people toward extreme actions. By examining various perspectives—from the terrorists themselves to their victims—the narrative seeks to foster understanding and provoke critical thought about the roots of violence and the consequences it has on individuals and communities. The book challenges readers to consider the intricate factors that contribute to radicalization and violent behavior. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
