In this innovative and highly relevant work, the authors stress ways in which local agencies can respond to and mitigate the effects of the worst acts of terror faced by urban authorities. The authors combine theory and practice, citing incidents around the world (including the devastating 9/11 attacks on the WTC in NYC and the Pentagon), while emphasizing Israel’s special experience in this field. In light of the increasing threat of terrorist acts and the rising interest in emergency management, Terror Bombing provides a solid background for officials and emergency response personnel who are seeking to understand one of the most dangerous threats to modern life.
