Book Description
After 9/11, U.S. border security priorities for land, sea, and air ports of entry were transformed, bringing a tidal wave of policy change. Yet, almost a decade after the pivotal terrorist attacks, is there solid proof that these measures have been effective, and are the purported benefits to our national security worth the financial and human costs?
