Based on his extensive time reporting throughout the region, and his unprecedented access to ISIS recruiters and supporters, Wood explores how the Islamic State's apocalyptic worldview informs their global media strategy, solidifies their authority, and dictates their geographically precise battle-plan. By accepting that ISIS is, at heart, an apocalyptic religious movement that truly believes the end is nigh, we can understand their strategy -- and predict what they will do next.
Graeme Wood is a contributing editor to The Atlantic and lecturer in political science at Yale University. His work has also appeared in The New Yorker, The American Scholar, The New Republic, Bloomberg Businessweek, The Wall Street Journal and the International Herald Tribune.

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 1st Edition. 318pp. Indexed. Black cloth boards (strong, sharp, bright) with gilt titles to spine. Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. In its original, unclipped dust jacket (very softly bumped at edges). A quest to understand the Islamic State, a round the world journey to the end of the night. The men encounters are misfits, some even losers, but their millenarian Islamist ideology makes them players in the world of global politics. Several other booksellers give 2016 as the first edition of this volume - this is incorrect; the text was copyrighted in 2016 but the book not published until 2017. N° de réf. du vendeur 002408
