The book further traces the processes through which the use of aircraft as weapons of destruction developed, from the first instances of aircraft hijacking in 1930s Peru, through Palestinian terrorism in the 1960s and 1970s, up to its adoption by al-Qaeda in the 1990s and leading to the 9\/11 attack in 2001. This examination provides an essential focus on the techniques through which terror is achieved, offering a novel understanding of the mechanisms of political violence and the implications of counterterrorism on the evolution of terrorism\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYannick Veilleux-Lepage is an Assistant Professor in the Institute of Security and Global Affairs at Leiden University, Netherlands.
