In this work, Peter Singer and Emerson Brooking provide a frightening description of social media as a weapon system. The book provides numerous case studies showing the results of social media in conflict, including the rise of ISIS and Russian actions in Crimea. In today’s world, sources like Facebook and Twitter provide a constant stream of true and questionable information, shaping our realities and worldview. These vignettes all solidify the fact that social media and rapid information flow will continue to shape how we fight wars in the future. This book is for any leader who may step foot onto a future battlefield.
