Terrorism in the 21st century: causes and effects

In the past ten years mass shootings have become a more frequent tragedy, posing important questions about public safety, mental health, and how the United States can respond to the threat of widespread gun violence. This book explores the history of shootings in the United States, examples of mass shootings and the public debate they sparked, and what experts say can be done to curb gun violence. The book will help young students understand the much discussed tragedies, how the United States is addressing the causes of gun violence, and how mass shootings fit into the larger debate on terrorism
