About this product

Product Information

Clapper traces his career through five decades of national intelligence operations, the growing threat of cyberattacks, his relationships with Presidents and Congress, and the truth about Russia's role in the presidential election. He describes, in the wake of Snowden and WikiLeaks, his efforts to make intelligence more transparent and to push back against the suspicion that Americans private lives are subject to surveillance.

Reviews
"James Clapper has written the best book on intelligence in a generation. . . . At a critical time in our nation, [Clapper] offers a crucial insight into the threat we face. . . . His great sense of humor also makes the book a pleasure to read." -- Brookings "James Clapper might just be the nation's most experienced intelligence officer ever. . . . Facts and Fears does more than simply tell Clapper's own story. . . . Instead, he's written a book that stands with the likes of Robert Gates' first memoir, From the Shadows . . . . Clapper's book tells the first, thoughtful, in-depth history of the rise of the American intelligence community as a semi-united entity. . . . Readers of this memoir will find a more complex and nuanced portrait than they might expect. The James Clapper who comes across in the book possesses a self-deprecating charm and a wry sense of humor. . . . Every chapter of the book offers hard-earned lessons for our modern moment." -- Wired

    Author is very knowledgeable much like Malcolm Nance but easier to understand, not quite as technical.

    This book tells a complete version of the story about what's happening to our country and many other democracies in the world. Russia has declared war on democracy in a very devious, under-handed, clever and technical way. Using social media, technical expertise, and our own freedoms against us, they have managed to intersperse agents, witting or unwitting, throughout the highest levels of our government, industry, and political organizations who are doing their bidding in a very coordinated way. Great book! Scary situation.

    Fascism on the rise

    This book shows that US democracy is very fragile and needs to be protected by its citizens! Unfortunately Trump is destroying this great country and its very foundation day by day by his insane actions

    Great.

    If you want the facts on America's Intelligence Operations, this is a must read. Mr. Clapper delivers the facts, free from any political bias.
