Now in paperback, and with a new, updated Afterword, this acclaimed investigative report is the first to expose the massive outsourcing of top-secret intelligence activities in the wake of 9/11. - A major story the government doesnt want us to know about: Almost everything about the outsourcing of spying activities is classified. Shorrock lifts the veil off this disturb- ing story for the first time. - Vital tasks outsourced: Running spy networks overseas, interrogating enemy prisoners, eavesdropping on phone calls, tracking al Qaeda operatives, analyzing intelligence-- these vital tasks, traditionally performed by government, are now being outsourced to companies answerable to investors rather than to Congress. - Authoritative: Shorrock has spent four years researching this new phenomenon, drawing on interviews, government documents, and industry contacts. He takes readers inside the intelligence contracting industry, which is worth more than $50 billion a year. About the Author:Tim Shorrock is an independent investigative reporter who has been writing about the intersection of business and national security for more than twenty-five years. His work has appeared in The Nation, Harpers, Salon.com, the Los Angeles Times, and other publications. He lives in Tahoma, California.
