Are we losing a war few of us realize we're fighting? Jim Sciutto,
CNN's Chief National Security Correspondent, reveals the invisible
fronts that make up 21st century warfare, from disinformation
campaigns to advanced satellite weapons. Poisoned dissidents.
Election interference. Armed invasions. International treaties
thrown into chaos. Secret military buildups. Hackers and viruses.
Weapons deployed in space. China and Russia (and Iran and North
Korea) spark news stories by carrying out bold acts of aggression
and violating international laws and norms. Isn't this just bad
actors acting badly? That kind of thinking is outdated and
dangerous. Emboldened by their successes, these countries are, in
fact, waging a brazen, global war on the US and the West. This is a
new Cold War, which will not be won by those who fail to realize
they are fighting it. The enemies of the West understand that while
they are unlikely to win a shooting war, they have another path to
victory. And what we see as our greatest strengths-open societies,
military innovation, dominance of technology on Earth and in space,
longstanding leadership in global institutions-these countries are
undermining or turning into weaknesses. In The Shadow War, CNN
anchor and chief national security correspondent Jim Sciutto
provides us with a revealing and at times disturbing guide to this
new international conflict. This Shadow War is already the greatest
threat to America's national security, even though most Americans
know little or nothing about it. With on-the-ground reporting from
Ukraine to the South China Sea, from a sub under the Arctic to
unprecedented access to America's Space Command, Sciutto draws on
his deep knowledge, high-level contacts, and personal experience as
a journalist and diplomat to paint the most comprehensive and vivid
picture of a nation targeted by a new and disturbing brand of
warfare. Thankfully, America is adapting and fighting back. In The
Shadow War, Sciutto introduces readers to the dizzying array of
soldiers, sailors, submariners and their commanders, space
engineers, computer scientists, civilians, and senior intelligence
officials who are on the front lines of this new kind of forever
war. Intensive and disturbing, this invaluable and important work
opens our eyes and makes clear that the war of the future is
already here.
