Publisher Synopsis
"After analysing the nature of modern security threats, Mandel proposes what he calls a 'target-centered conceptual approach' to better recognise, assess, prioritise and manage them. He uses the cases of the Iraq War, the 2004 tsunami, the London Transport bombings and the US illegal-immigration debate to illustrate his approach." - International Institute for Strategic Studies
