Features: The central theme of this book can be summarized in one sentence: The United States, the world's only superpower today, is already invincible in strength but also has a fatal weakness—attacks from covert terrorism using nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons. To the best of my knowledge, in assessing the growing threat of large-scale, The American Achilles' Heel is the most profound and comprehensive. For anyone with a keen interest in U.S. national security, this outstanding work is a fundamental read. —U.S. Senator Richard Lugar (Richard Lugar)
This is an outstanding study, meticulous, well-organized, and insightful. For anyone who wants to understand the most severe threats to U.S. national security in the post-Cold War era, The American Achilles' Heel is a must-read. —James Woolsey (R. James Woolsey), CIA Director (1995–1997)
