Abstract

Handbooks such as this one are a bit like candy stores. Handbooks allow for a collection of appealing and varied articles, all of which are waiting to be sampled. If you try one, like it, and want more, the chapters in this research-oriented publication will give you indications for where you can get more, so that your cravings can easily be satisfied. Even better, the candies offered here in the second edition of the Routledge Handbook of Security Studies come with additional benefits: they are good for the brain, they do not make you gain weight, and you are not even constrained to brush your teeth afterwards.
