Summary "As Europe becomes one of the most important battlegrounds in the global fight against terrorism, U.S. cooperation with European counter-terrorism efforts is more vital than ever. Despite often-heated rhetoric, authorities on both sides of the Atlantic have adopted similar methods - and faced similar difficulties - since September 11. In this timely study, Michael Jacobson explores diplomatic, legislative, and tactical approaches that can help Western governments overcome their shared challenges."--BOOK JACKET
