Description: "Examine the role of gender in the radicalization of young men as they enter and exit extremist movements"--Provided by publisher.

Review Quotes: "[Kimmel] believes that gender, specifically masculinity, is both 'the psychological inspiration' that sends young men into these groups "and the social glue that keeps them involved.' If true -- and Kimmel makes a compelling case that it is -- that could be good news for rehabilitation, because it is much easier to challenge violent extremism by engaging these young men as men, instead of trying to convince them that an ideology they may have embraced is flawed."--Dina Temple-Raston "The Washington Post"
