His most recent book, written along with David P. Barash, is Peace and Conflict Studies (Sage) will be published in July.

"Charles Webel has provided a stunning analysis of terror in terms of its psychological, social, and political impact. He also has important ideas about how to confront it. This is a major work that forces us to deal with our fears and the politicians who prey upon them." --Stephen Eric Bronner, Rutgers University
