I haven’t read this book, Brave New War, yet but it appears to have some interesting ideas that America must consider at some point if we are to insulate ourselves from crippling terrorist attacks: How can we defend ourselves against this pernicious new menace? “Brave New War” presents a debate-changing argument that no one who cares about national security can afford to ignore: it is time, says Robb, to decentralize all of our systems, from energy and communications to security and markets. It is time for every citizen to take personal responsibility for some aspect of state security. It is time to make our systems, and ourselves, as flexible, adaptable, and resilient as the forces that are arrayed against us.
