Description
We live in a world of influence operations run amok, a world of dark ads, psy-ops, hacks, bots, alternative facts, ISIS, Putin, trolls, Trump. Forty years after his dissident parents were pursued by the KGB, Peter Pomerantsev seeks to make sense of the disinformation age. He meets Twitter revolutionaries and pop-up populists, 'behavioural change' salesmen, Jihadi fan-boys, Identitarians, truth cops, and much more. Part reportage, part intellectual adventure, this is a Pynchon-like exploration of a time where truth has been turned inside out.
