Be twice as good as men and four times as good as white men.
Jia Khan has always lived like this.
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. This book traces the evolution of the Islamic State and delivers a blow-by-blow account of the campaign to defeat it, including an in-depth analysis that is indispensable for academics, policymakers, and government officials seeking to understand how the West waged war against this terrorist juggernaut.
― Colin P. Clarke, Carnegie Mellon University, author of After the Caliphate
