Overview
Renowned blogger and Middle East expert Juan Cole takes us "inside the youth movements in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya, showing us how activists used technology and social media to amplify their message and connect with like-minded citizens" (The New York Times) in this "rousing study of the Arab Spring" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
For three decades, Cole has sought to put the relationship of the West and the Muslim world in historical context.

"Engaging, powerful, and comprehensive...The book feels as indispensable to scholars as it is insightful for a more casual reader" (Los Angeles Times).
