All-powerful, brilliant, decisive, ruthlessly effective ... this is
the image of the CIA as portrayed in countless films and novels. It
is wrong. This shocking book, based on thousands of declassified
documents and interviews with agents at all levels, shows the
reality behind the glamorous myth: a blundering, chaotic and
dangerously incompetent organization, so ineffective it was
nicknamed 'Can't Identify Anything' by Nato forces. In a story of
botched coups, missed targets, lost operatives and fatal errors,
Tim Weiner shows how the CIA now poses a threat not only to the
security of the US, but the world.
