Description
"Subversion is now the norm, not the exception, in our information age. In this rich and complex work the author ranges widely from the philosophical understanding of 'truth' to the activities of troll factories in Russia. Now that the Great Power conflict is very much alive, Krieg's insights are particularly timely."-Christopher Coker, director, LSE IDEAS
