'The Age of Jihad charts the turmoil of today's Middle East and the devastating role the West has played n the region from 2001 to the present. Beginning with the US-led invasion of Afghanistan, Cockburn explores the vast geopolitical struggle that is the Sunni–Shia conflict, a clash that shapes the war on terror; western military interventions; the volution of the insurgency; the civil wars in Yemen, Libya and Syria; the Arab Spring; the fall of regional dictators; and the rise of Islamic State.'
