"This book looks at UK Counter Terrorism Laws in the broadest context. As a result the authors have been able to describe not only how British Counter Terrorism laws function as part of UK criminal law, but also how they fit within international Counter Terrorism obligations and instruments.The book examines a wide range of energising issue – for example ‘dataveillance’.

I commend it as a leading new work, which all interested in Counter Terrorism should read."
