Book synopsis

One failure of the current "war against terrorism" is the inadequacy of the western authorities to detect terrorist finance. In this book, a former CIA officer specializing in terrorist finance and money laundering provides personal insights into the workings of the intelligence and law enforcement communities. He argues that the mistakes they made before 9/11 failed to prevent attacks on America and that these mistakes were not isolated. Rather, these blunders were of a bureaucratic cultures, misguided policies and entrenched ways of doing business, and continue to fail us now. His memoir provides a true-life perspective on issues, procedures, government cultures and decisions that are so vitally important today. Written by a top expert on international money laundering and terrorist finance, who follows an unusual money trail around the world, this title presents an insider's knowledge of esoteric bureaucratic cultures and how foreign and financial intelligence and law enforcement works - and sometimes doesn't work.
