R. William Johnstone served on the transportation security staff of
the 9/11 Commission, and wrote this book to build upon and
supplement the Commission's work. In its pages, he explains the
aviation security system failure on 9/11, uses that as a means for
evaluating post-9/11 transportation security efforts, and proposes
remedies to continued shortcomings. 9/11 and the Future of
Transportation Security is based on information originally provided
to the 9/11 Commission, augmented by unpublished reports and a
wealth of other material that has come to light since the issuance
of the Commission's own report in July 2004. Part One analyzes the
aviation security system's history and institutions to explain why
the system failed on 9/11. Part Two looks at what has been done in
aviation and transportation security since 9/11, including the
Commission's recommendations and the congressional response to
them. Finally and most significantly, Part Three outlines a
suggested approach for improving current U.S. transportation
security. It begins with fundamental policy questions that must be
answered if we are to optimize transportation security efforts, and
concludes with both underlying principles for action and specific
recommendations.
