In this riveting anatomy of the new face of authoritarianism acclaimed journalist William Dobson takes us inside the battle between modern dictators and those who challenge their rule. From Tahrir Square to the Kremlin we have witnessed an incredible moment in the war between dictators and democracy. The problem is that today's authoritarians are not like the frozen-in-time ready-to-crack regime of North Korea. They are ever-morphing technologically savvy and have replaced more brutal forms of intimidation with subtle coercion. But as dictators have become more nimble so have the inspiring people who oppose their rule. The Dictator's Learning Curve explains this historic moment and offers hope for the future of freedom. 'Says something really fresh about the world we live in' Sunday Telegraph 'Timely authoritative and as readable as a novel' Prospect
