Writing for a broad audience, Lewis draws on the history and philosophy of technology in order to explain the evolution and diffusion of suicide bombing across time and from region to region. Lewis presents a model for suicide bombing that integrates individual psychology, organizational motivations, and social support. He argues that suicide bombing is a technology that has been invented and re-invented at different times in different areas, but always for the same purpose: resolving a mismatch in military capabilities between antagonists by utilizing the available cultural and human resources."--Book jacket. 000685308 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000685308 650_0 $$aSuicide bombings$$xHistory. 000685308 650_0 $$aSuicide bombers$$xHistory. 000685308 650_0 $$aTerrorism$$xHistory. 000685308 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aLewis, Jeffrey W.$$tBusiness of martyrdom.$$dAnnapolis, Md. : Naval Institute Press, c2012$$z9781612510514$$w(DLC) 2011044682$$w(OCoLC)757469539 000685308 8520_ $$bacq 000685308 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000685308 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=905462$$zOnline Access 000685308 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:685308$$pGLOBAL_SET 000685308 980__ $$aEBOOK 000685308 980__ $$aBIB 000685308 982__ $$aEbook 000685308 983__ $$aOnline
