Fills a conspicuous gap in the literature by providing an authoritative dissection of one of the more prominent features of contemporary terrorism: so-called jihadi snuff videos.

Explains how ISIS harnessed social media to manipulate global opinion and communicate a carefully constructed image of the group.

Written in a lively and accessible style, it interrogates why some people find terrorist atrocity films both repulsive and irresistible.
