The recent terror attacks and mass shootings in the United States have underscored the urgent need for research on terrorism, enhancing the public's understanding of the precursors of terrorism and fostering their preparedness for acts of terror. Regrettably, a significant portion of Americans lack the knowledge necessary to identify suspicious behavior and report it appropriately. Moreover, the public remains ill-prepared for the aftermath of terrorist attacks or mass casualty incidents. Drawing upon five years of the Chapman Survey of American Fears (CSAF), a nationally representative survey, and real-world events, Homeland Insecurity presents practical solutions for educating the public and empowering them to overcome fear and actively contribute to securing schools, public venues, and the homeland. The book addresses proposals by survivors and victims' families to reduce violence through initiatives aimed at denying shooters the attention they seek and restricting access to guns. It also delves into the rise of activism among survivors of school shootings, their unwavering commitment to educating the public and ending school shootings. Homeland In Security is a valuable resource for scholars, students, and policy makers alike, providing valuable insights and actionable strategies for enhancing public safety and security.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 272g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 142 x 224 x 13 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367859251\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AnnGordon,Kai Hamilton Gentry","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103721091322,"sku":"9780367859251","price":52.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/59ab6a04927e6600391c66810ef8d5fe.jpg?v=1623582344","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/homeland-insecurity-terrorism-mass-shootings-and-the-public","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
