Editorial Reviews

Review

"Patrick Dunleavy's important new book offers glimpses of the determined efforts, difficulties, failures, frustrations, and feuds that characterize efforts to combat prison recruitment.
The Fertile Soil of Jihad is a major contribution to our overall understanding of radicalization and terrorist recruitment."
Brian Michael Jenkins
RAND Corp


"An insider's look at the shadowy and complex world of radicalization inside prison walls and how it extends from the cellblock to the outside world...from New York to Palestine, Yemen, 
Afghanistan, and beyond."
J.M. Berger
editor of Intelwire.com


"...a true tale of intrigue, betrayal, deception, violence, and unparalleled detective work that reads
like a Robert Ludlum novel.  This is one of those books that will enthrall you, enrage you, and engage you from the moment you pick it up"
Steven Emerson
Executive Director
Investigative Project on Terrorism


"Dunleavy masterfully weaves together the intrigue, the connective dots... and, the conspiracies that bind the jihadists in and out of the penitentiaries and their subtle connection to home grown domestic terrorists. His narrative is spellbinding and his prose is superb."
Ruth King
Contributing Editor
Family Security Matters


This important study greatly benefits from the author's unique operational experience. He had served as a former Deputy Inspector General of the Criminal Intelligence Unit in New York State. This is one of the very few books written on Islamist radicalization and recruitment in American prisons. 
PERSPECTIVES ON TERRORISM - Volume 6, Issue 2

About the Author

Patrick T. Dunleavy, former deputy inspector general of the Criminal Intelligence Unit of the New York State Department of Correctional Services, worked as part of an elite team of investigators for more than twenty-six years, infiltrating criminal enterprises and contract murder conspiracies and negotiating for the release of hostages. He was a key figure in Operation Hades, an investigation that probed the radical Islamic recruitment movement for jihad from both inside and outside prison walls. He lives in the Pacific Northwest.
