- This 288-page book provides a multidisciplinary analysis of online extremism, drawing insights from the worlds of computer science, political philosophy and rational choice theory. It represents an extended and complex piece of research focused on the intersections between religion, radicalisation, violent extremism, and the internet to produce a complex, extended, and creative investigation of an important subject. It draws on the work of a diverse collection of thinkers—including Smith, Rawls, Turkle, Anderson, Iannaccone, and Elster—to create an extensive and detailed analysis that was dependent upon a lengthy period of data collection, collaboration, and analysis.
