SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"In National Insecurity ten prominent experts describe, from an insider perspective, what went wrong with the U.S. intelligence system and what needs to be done to fix it. Drawing on their experience in government administration, research, and the foreign service, they propose a radical rethinking of the United States' intelligence needs in the post-Cold War world. In addition, they offer a coherent and unified plan for reform that can protect U.S. security while upholding the values of our democratic system."--Jacket.
