Reviews
Andrew Fox offers a fascinating examination of emerging technologies and the threat they pose to the United States. The shadow of Prometheus looms large over our future! Fox urges us to prepare now. --Seth G. Jones, senior vice president of the Center for Strategic and International Studies A fascinating, frightening weave of fiction and fact that brings to life real-world threats--so true it's terrifying. I'm astonished that Fox's book isn't classified at the highest level, as terrorists could exploit these civilization-ending technologies. I only hope our government is frantically working to prevent these scenarios from coming true! --Col. Doug Beason, U.S. Air Force (Ret.), former associate laboratory director for threat reduction, Los Alamos National Laboratory In chilling--but realistic--scenarios of future terrorism, Andrew Fox presents plausible surprise attacks that America may face from enemies foreign and domestic. But he also proposes a realistic method for intervention and prevention, utilizing America's untapped resources of imagination, creativity, and teamwork. --Arlan Andrews, former White House fellow in the Office of Science and Technology Policy and founder of Sigma, the science fiction think tank This is a thoughtful, highly imaginative, and fact-rich book of great interest to readers far beyond the national security and defense communities. --Amy Sterling Casil, author of Digital Forensics: Investigating Data and Pathology: Examining the Body for Clues
