Faculty Publication -- Terrorism: A History

Associate Professor of History Randy Law is having quite the year. His new book, Terrorism: A History, was published this past summer by Polity press, a British publishing house that focuses on sociology, politics, and social and political theory. The book’s most recent review, published only last week, congratulated Law “on what is an error-free and well-presented book with a sprinkling of black and white images” and an “exhaustive bibliography.” The review concluded that “Law’s study provides the main reading for any political theory or international relations course.” The book can be found in the BSC Library (call number HV6431 .L39 2009). Shortly after Terrorism: A History came off the press, Professor Law headed off for the Ukraine, where he has been continuing to study terrorism on a Fulbright scholarship. His wife, Hannah Wolfson, has recorded their experiences there on her lively blog (http://theunlitsea.com/ ). We all look forward to welcoming back the Laws, along with their son Alex, when they are expected to return to Alabama next week.
