Negative Positive
Title: insecurity
Review: the fact that this book was published in 1997 from work done earlier does not excuse its failure to address material dealing with the panoply of imperatives for security either then or now. while the economy and the environment are mentioned as items to be addressed in the new security syllabus no attention is given to cyberterrorism, asymmetrical warfare, catastrophic terrorism, or even biological warfare. the works cited tend to be parochial and, generally, naive. the book does reveal the thinking of some of the people who occasionally advise our government on such matters as security. zut, alors! some of the chapters include syllabi that provide insight into what is, perhaps, being purveyed as secuity studies across the country and, heaven forefend, around the world. the book provides no web addresses.
Is the review positive or negative?
