My newly released book:
In contemporary society, words can be as destructive as bombs. Weaponized Communication: Improvised Explosive Devices explores how information, propaganda, and psychological tactics function as volatile tools of conflict—detonating social and political chaos, just as IEDs wreak havoc on battlefields.
This book delves into the parallels between physical and informational warfare, examining how narratives, misinformation, and strategic messaging are deployed to manipulate perception, destabilize adversaries, and exert control. From insurgent propaganda to state-sponsored disinformation campaigns, Weaponized Communication analyzes how groups exploit media, technology, and public discourse to create psychological and ideological explosions.
Central to this book is that weaponized communications are often multimodal, involving listening-speaking, reading-writing, and visual reception-visual presentation. As such, integrated destructive information can be spread far and wide..
Social science studies and concepts are employed to unpack the mechanics of weaponized influence and deception in modern cultural conflicts. Whether in asymmetric warfare, cyber operations, or mass media manipulation, the weaponization of communication is shown as polluting the social fabric of western culture.
Weaponized Communication: Improvised Explosive Devices offers a gripping and critical exploration of how words, like bombs, are engineered to disrupt, divide, and destroy. Forewarned is forearmed.
