“If it weren't so absurd and bizarrely funny, this would be a terrifying book, on par with Stephen King's finest. As it is, Ronson examines a culture of men who are given too much money, power and entitlement, and not nearly enough common sense nor humanitarianism to back it up. So sad that it's nonfiction, and about the US intelligence community from the 1950s on, especially since there is too little intelligence and far too much torture and murder. Recommended for conspiracy theorists, skeptics and anyone who enjoys knowing that your greatest enemy is the one claiming to protect you.”
