Wisconsin's Champion Trees: A Tree Hunter's Guide

1 review
R. Bruce Allison

University of Wisconsin Press, 2005

not much to entertain
This book is basically a list with numbers and measurments. There are no anecdotes and the pictures are black and white and unexceptional. It was listed as "being taken on a tour" of Wisconsin's big trees but that really is not accurate. It is simply a tree by tree listing and the same info can be found on the Wisconsin DNR website for free.

State of the Struggle: Report on the Battle Against Global Terrorism

Lee Hamilton, Bruce Hoffman, ...

Council on Global Terrorism, 2007

uneasy reading of unaddressed weaknesses
Here is an unsettling little read, provided by the Council on Global Terrorism. It points out an increasing Islamist radicalisation. Not just in the Middle East, but also in the Muslim diaspora in the developed countries. Topics including US homeland defense, against chemical, biological or nuclear attacks. Much has not been done. Maybe the surprise is that, as the current Administration is ...

Organized groups of victims' families and friends have emerged since September 11, 2001, to become a powerful voice in U.S. counterterrorist policy and legislation.

This report documents these groups and compares them to groups formed in response to other terrorist attacks.

Inside Terrorism

20 reviews
Bruce Hoffman

Columbia University Press, 2006

analyzes the political tactics of terrorism
I found this book to be quite enlightening as well as fascinating to read. Refusing to engage in the political rhetoric surrounding terrorism, the author, Bruce Hoffman, (an expert in counter-terrorism at West Point as well as a professor at Georgetown)follows the evolution of terrorism as a means of calling world attention to forgotten or underpublicized plights of the disenfranchised in order ...

Bruce Hoffman, Jennifer M. Taw

Rand Corp, 1991

Essential text for those seeking greater definitons of COIN
The pamphlet is a wonderful starting point for those researching COIN (Counter Insurgency). The Britsh were one of the few nations to "get it right" when facing Mao style insurgency. This pamphlet provides a brief overview of the tactics, techniques and learning points from the Britsh experiences in Malaya, Kenya and Cyprus. Hoffman and Taw have an excellent grasp on the subject and their ...

Security in the Nation's Capital and the Closure of Pennsylvania Avenue: An Assessment
Bruce Hoffman, Peter Chalk

RAND Corporation, 2001

Acts of terrorism are not a new threat to Washington, D.C. Over the past two centuries, there have been several organized terrorist attacks, as well as numerous assaults by unstable individuals acting alone, that have targeted the White House and U.S. Capitol building and the President or U.S. Congressmen within the city limits of the District of Columbia. Nevertheless, it was not until the 1980s that such incidents evoked heightened security ...
