The instant Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and international bestseller “While the history books are filled with tales of obsessive visionary geniuses who remade the world in their image with sheer, almost irrational force, I’ve found that history is also made by individuals who fought their egos at every turn, who eschewed the spotlight, and who put their higher goals above their desire for recognition.” —from the prologue

The life and legacy of one of Mohammad’s closest confidants and Islam’s patron saint: Ali ibn Abi Talib “Ali was a hugely gifted thinker and speaker, one of the earliest scribes and something of a poet.

The West’s war against ISIS has largely evaded rigorous scholarly analysis - until now. In this succinct and incisive study, Mumford masterfully surveys the major dimensions of the anti-ISIS fight. In comprehensively charting key developments - from the perspective of decision-makers in the White House to the assemblage of cyber warriors, special forces and surrogates on the front lines - the book exposes a campaign pervaded by contradictions and incoherencies.” ― Thomas Waldman, Macquarie University, author of Vicarious Warfare Andrew Mumford's The West's War Against Islamic State offers a compelling overview of the fight against ISIS.
