Reviews

“In this outstanding and refreshing book, Dr. Deniese Kennedy-Kollar studies how men are drawn to radicalization through an online subculture based on a perverted view of manhood rooted in male supremacy. Her thesis fits well with our modern society that aims at equality for women and meritocracy. Our ideals and hopes are such that anyone can and should become who they want based on their potential, drive, and work. This threatens the subculture of male supremacists. Her theme is outlined in a fascinating book that uses key examples clearly demonstrating the accuracy of her work. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to understand this radicalization process. This is a must read for students of criminal justice/criminology, law enforcement, politicians, policy makers, and many others.” - John A. Eterno, Professor & Graduate Program Director, Molloy University “Deniese Kennedy-Kollar in delightful prose takes us on a very interesting, intellectually enriching, and insightful journey through the manosphere. The book throughout is a tour de force explaining how this hegemonic masculine social space creates the motivational climate for its members to engage in rape, murder, and mass murder. This book is a must read for academics, students, criminal justice practitioners, and lay persons interested in understanding gender-based wars, misogyny, antifeminism, hegemonic masculinity, online radicalization and extremism, right wing terrorism, and social violence, with a view to identifying threat assessment and prevention opportunities.” - Christopher A.D. Charles, Professor of Political and Social Psychology, University of the West Indies
