Excerpts from Wadsworth Texts
The horrific terrorism attacks of September 11, 2001 and the world's
subsequent response to those acts create a need for students to better
understand the nature of terrorism and the developments which may have
lead to its execution. For the creation of this web site we have drawn
upon the expertise of several Wadsworth Publishing Criminal Justice, Sociology
and Anthropology textbook authors. We hope that our authors and their
texts will help you and your students become better informed citizens
as our country and the world face the challenges of the coming months.
This Website may be updated from time to time. Please
check the site periodically for possible updates.
