Synopsis
This book is the sequel to ON INTELLIGENCE: Spies and Secrecy in an Open World (AFCEA International Press, 2000). That book, written largely for government and corporate intelligence professionals, remains the basic reference volume for the future of global intelligence enterprises. This book, by contrast, is a completely new effort that is written for every citizen of every country—the "intelligence minutemen" of the 21st Century. In the aftermath of the 11 September 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, attacks carried out by a non-state actor skilled at asymmetric warfare and using our own capabilities against us—attacks followed quickly by a nation-wide anthrax assault that closed Congress and terrified the U.S. Postal Service—it is imperative that every citizen have a clear-headed understanding of what is at stake and what needs to be done to keep not only America, but all civilized communities safe. It is especially imperative that citizens understand that the world is already at war, with millions of refugees in 67 countries, plagues sweeping across 59 countries, mass starvation in 27 countries, and deliberate genocide campaigns in 18 countries. These are "facts of life" that our schools, our media and even our intelligence communities have been unwilling and unable to represent intelligently to the public. It is against this backdrop of global chaos that terrorism rises.

About the Author
Robert David Steele, OSS CEO, is featured in The Year in Computers (2000) and in the chapter on "The Future of the Spy" in Alvin & Heidi Toffler’s War and Anti-War: Survival at the Dawn of the 21st Century. He has been twice-named to the Microtimes 100: "Industry leaders and unsung heroes who…helped create the future", and was the first recipient of the SOURCES eJournal "Sages of the Ages" award. The author, who for many years has helped train intelligence professionals from over 40 nations, and consulted directly to 18 governments, brings to bear twenty-five years of broad experience in national, defense, and business intelligence. He has served in three of the four Directorates of the Central Intelligence Agency; served overseas in three consecutive and dangerous tours as a clandestine service officer under deep cover; helped program for overhead imagery satellites and support national signals intelligence programs; managed an offensive national-level counterintelligence program; and been the senior civilian responsible for creating the newest U.S. national intelligence production facility, the U.S. Marine Corps Intelligence Center (now Command). As OSS CEO he has inventoried open sources and services around the globe, and provides direct open source intelligence support to a variety of government and private sector organizations.
