From the back cover:

The United States is the most powerful country in the history of humankind. The process by which it interprets its security impacts not only itself but the world. We argue that this process is increasingly unclear and ineffective.

The authors of this book spent decades within a national level knowledge-creation vocation; the U.S. Intelligence Community (US IC). Over the last 20 years, especially since the attacks on the United States on 9/11/2001, a US IC perpetuated narrative has falsely identified an increasingly uncertain and threatening world. The US Government’s (USG) actions associated with this narrative have had extraordinary consequences in not only American but also human blood and treasure.

An ill-defined and impractical concept of US national security (rather than US intelligence failure) on 9/11/2001 was the principal cause for America’s losses. After twenty years, continued confusion surrounding the concept represents an existential threat to not only America but also the world.
