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.
