Description
The Assault on Intelligence: American National Security in an Age of Lies by Michael V. Hayden In a world where facts are under attack and truth is increasingly seen as a liability, General Michael Hayden delivers a sobering vision of the state of American intelligence. The author, who has spent his career at the forefront of national security, argues that the ultimate truth teller - the intelligence community - has a responsibility to go beyond warning of external dangers. The stakes are high, with the very foundations of democracy under stress and many long-held assumptions about governance being challenged or eroded. Hayden's book is a call to action, urging readers to re-examine their understanding of governance and the role of intelligence in maintaining national security.
