Meer over het boek
The first major book on ISIS since its rise in summer 2014 draws on unique access to intelligence, law enforcement, and open-source research. The authors outline the origins of ISIS, exploring its transformation into a formidable terrorist group. The book examines the disturbing nature of pro-jihadi videos, the allure of 'jihadi chic,' and the Islamic State's effective use of social media to recruit individuals from countries like the U.S., U.K., and France, highlighting cases such as Douglas McCain, an American who joined ISIS. While the narrative is grim, it also provides informed insights into potential government responses to ISIS, stressing the need to adapt our understanding of terrorism and respond swiftly to the evolving jihadi landscape, both online and offline. This work is not just a compelling account of a terrorist organization's evolution but also a crucial examination of what actions should be taken next—by nations, governments, and the global community.
