Reviews
"Patrick Cockburn spotted the emergence of ISIS much earlier than anybody else and wrote about it with a depth of understanding that was just in a league of its own. Nobody else was writing that stuff at that time, and the judges wondered whether the Government should consider pensioning off the whole of MI6 and hiring Patrick Cockburn instead. The breadth of his knowledge and his ability make connections is phenomenal." --Judges of the Foreign Affairs Journalist of the Year Award 2014 "Quite simply, the best Western journalist at work in the Middle East today." --Seymour M. Hersh "One of the best informed on-the-ground journalists. He was almost always correct on Iraq." --Sidney Blumenthal, in an email to Hillary Clinton Praise for The Rise of Islamic State : "A wonderful book." --Yasmin Alibhai-Brown, BBC News "Excellent." --Richard Norton-Taylor, Guardian "Amid the many books published on the current conflicts reshaping the Middle East, few are as informative or perceptive." --Observer "Accessible ... Cockburn, an experienced Mideast journalist, offers revealing anecdotes on the decrepit state of the Iraqi Army and the sluggish and brutal military stalemate in Syria ... Cockburn describes a continuing tragedy in which hubris and optimism destroyed a seemingly promising revolution." --Tom Engelhardt, TomDispatch "Authoritative." -- Washington Post "A brilliant book on ISIS." --Tom Holland, The Andrew Marr Show

Synopsis
From the award-winning author of The Rise of Islamic State , the essential story of the Middle East's disintegration The Age of Jihad charts the turmoil of today's Middle East and the devastating role the West has played in the region from 2001 to the present. Beginning with the US-led invasion of Afghanistan, Cockburn explores the vast geopolitical struggle that is the Sunni-Shia conflict, a clash that shapes the war on terror, western military interventions, the evolution of the insurgency, the civil wars in Yemen, Libya and Syria, the Arab Spring, the fall of regional dictators, and the rise of Islamic State. As Cockburn shows in arresting detail, Islamic State did not explode into existence in Syria in the wake of the Arab Spring, as conventional wisdom would have it. The organization gestated over several years in occupied Iraq, before growing to the point where it can threaten the stability of the whole region. Cockburn was the first Western journalist to warn of the dangers posed by Islamic State. His originality and breadth of vision make The Age of Jihad the most in-depth analysis of the regional crisis in the Middle East to date., An essential chronicle of the major conflict of our age from the award-winning author of The Rise of Islamic State , charting the fault lines of the Middle East's disintegration since 9/11 "Quite simply, the best Western journalist at work in the Middle East today."--Seymour M.
