About

Nicholas Grossman is a leading scholar in the intersection of modern warfare, terrorism, and emerging technology. His research focuses on how asymmetric conflicts are reshaped by accessible, off-the-shelf innovations—particularly the weaponization of commercial drones. In his highly influential work *Drones and Terrorism* (2018), which has garnered 14 citations, Grossman explores how non-state actors exploit drones for reconnaissance and bombings, fundamentally altering the landscape of security and counterterrorism. By analyzing the shift from conventional state-on-state conflict to decentralized, tech-enabled insurgency, he provides critical insights into the vulnerabilities of even the most powerful militaries. Grossman’s contributions have made him a sought-after voice in policy circles, and his writing bridges academic rigor with real-world urgency, helping students and researchers understand the evolving nature of 21st-century warfare. His work is essential reading for anyone studying the dark side of technological diffusion in conflict zones.
