Review :
This is an important book at just the right time. We are seeing an increase in hate crimes nationally and an increase in the role the internet is playing in encouraging bias motivated violence. The authors have described in a clear but detailed way the techniques internet sites and social media platforms use attract and retain visitors as well as the ways organized hate groups have used cryptocurrency to fund their organizations. This is a very important book for police, prosecutors and policy makers who are on the front lines fighting against hate and violence.
