Abstract

This document presents a comprehensive bibliography of the original 2004 work, Psychology of Terrorism authored by Randy Borum which analyzes key findings on the psychology of terrorism. This bibliography contains more than 300 bibliographic entries and consists of three types of annotations: (1) author’s abstract--an abstract of the work as provided by the author; (2) editor’s annotation--an annotation written by the editor of the bibliography; and (3) key quote summary--an annotation composed of “key quotes” from the original work, edited for a cogent overview of its main points. The bibliography was formulated by searching a series of major academic databases and focusing on locating professional social science literature on psychology and terrorism.
