"Religious zeal and passionate dogma can be powerful motivators for homegrown recruits of terrorist organizations. In this book, Peter A. Olsson, MD, applies his years of work with disordered personalities to the psychological understanding of why seemingly ordinary Americans turn into murderers of their countrymen. He identifies the psychodynamic patterns of the lives of those who become 'homegrown terrorists' and commit acts of cold-blooded murder, examining 20 detailed case histories of individuals--often youths or young adults--to provide theoretical and practical understandings."--Inside jacket.
