Home, Land, Security: Deradicalization and the Journey Back from Extremism

Currently reading the extraordinary Home, Land, Security by @carlapower. A deep dive into stories of radicalisation, it is an engaged, serious investigation that illuminates without judging. It has taught me much as both a writer and reader.
