A leading foreign correspondent looks at how social media has
transformed the modern battlefield, and how wars are fought Modern
warfare is a war of narratives, where bullets are fired both
physically and virtually. Whether you are a president or a
terrorist, if you don't understand how to deploy the power of
social media effectively you may win the odd battle but you will
lose a twenty-first century war. Here, journalist David
Patrikarakos draws on unprecedented access to key players to
provide a new narrative for modern warfare. He travels thousands of
miles across continents to meet a de-radicalized female member of
ISIS recruited via Skype, a liberal Russian in Siberia who takes a
job manufacturing "Ukrainian" news, and many others to explore the
way social media has transformed the way we fight, win, and consume
wars-and what this means for the world going forward.
