On Islamic State

Atwan, Abdel Bari. Islamic State: The Digital Caliphate. Berkeley: University of California Press, 2015. pp. 256.

If you’ve followed all the New Yorker and Washington Post exposés about ISIS, you’ll know most of what’s written here already. It already feels a bit dated, but it’s good to know because the internet is a powerful place for political organization and it may be relevant once again in the future. In spite of these things, it’s worth the read.
