Description - Bombshell by Mia Bloom
The ultimate stealth weapon, female terrorists kill on average four times more people than their male counterparts. In Bombshell Bloom seeks to understand what motivates women and to redress the gap in our understanding of women's roles by interviewing women previously involved in terrorist groups. Bloom provided a unique and rare first hand glimpse into the psychology, culture and social networks of women who become terrorists. Bombshell takes an in-depth look at women involved in terrorism in Chechnya, Colombia, Germany, Indonesia, Iraq, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Lebanon, Palestine, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Syria, Turkey, the UK, and the US. Why are more women drawn to terrorism than ever before? Do women volunteer to be terrorists, or are they coerced? Does women's participation in terrorism have any positive impact on their place in society? Drawing on secondary literature and primary research, Bloom examines the increasing role of women in terrorism, and considers what it means for the societies from which they come.
