David Patrikarakos fills that void. -- Bill Keller * The New York Times * War in 140 Characters should be mandatory reading at Sandhurst -- Ben Judah * The Times * Nuclear Iran was named as a New York Times Editor's Choice in 2013 * The New York Times * Author InformationDavid Patrikarakos is a writer and journalist who has written for the New Statesman, Financial Times, the London Review of Books, Prospect and the Guardian.
