Very informative, well-structured look into the dark topic of male supremacist communities. It's a topic I had cursory knowledge of going in, and I recommend it to anyone looking to expand their understanding of the ways fringe sexist ideologies from the bowels of hate groups' forums ripple through society and affect all of us.

notthatcosta's review against another edition
2.5
Most of the chapters feel unnecessarily padded out, often with repetition of previous points made that don't serve to create a cohesive narrative thread. Even in more successful chapters like 'Men Who Don't Know They Hate Women', half way through it veers off into a tangent about the 2016 election.
I understand that the topic at hand is very broad, complex and wide reaching, but the lack of focus makes it frustrating to read beyond the frustrating subject matter. With better and tighter editing I think this could have been a great book, but it ends up feeling like an unfocussed and cluttered collection of ideas and case studies with some paraphrased 4Chan posts sprinkled in.
I probably would have preferred it if the book just centred on what Laura Bates heard during her school visits and talks, rather than the need to try and summarise what she read on manosphere forums.
