Suicide Bombers

Conventional wisdom has long held that those most likely to carry out suicide attacks are young men on the margins of society with nothing left to lose. Recent work has proven otherwise -- suicide bombers are well educated, often married with children, and increasingly, women. Laura's guests are Clark McCauley, Professor of Psychology at Bryn Mawr College and Director of the Solomon Asch Center for Study of Ethnopolitical Conflict and Dr. Nancy Kobrin, a psychoanalyst in St. Paul, Minnesota.
