An authoritative introduction to ISIS-now expanded and revised to
bring events up to the present The Islamic State stunned the world
with its savagery, destructiveness, and military and recruiting
successes. However, its most striking and distinctive
characteristic was its capacity to build governing institutions and
a theologically grounded national identity. What explains the rise
of ISIS and the caliphate, and what does it portend for the future
of the Middle East? In this book, one of the world's leading
authorities on political Islam and jihadism sheds new light on
these questions. Moving beyond journalistic accounts, Fawaz Gerges
provides a clear and compelling explanation of the deeper
conditions that fuel ISIS. This new edition brings the story of
ISIS to the present, covering key events-from the military defeat
of its territorial state to the death of its leader al-Baghdadi-and
analyzing how the ongoing Syrian, Iraqi, and Saudi-Iranian conflict
could lead to ISIS's revival.
