Richard A. Clarke Books in Order

Richard A. Clarke is a renowned author, cybersecurity expert, and former U.S. government employee. With a distinguished career spanning three decades, from 1973 to 2003, he held key positions in the State Department and National Security Council under multiple presidential administrations. Clarke served as chairman of the Counter-terrorism Security Group under President George H.W. Bush, and as National Coordinator for Security, Infrastructure Protection, and Counter-terrorism under President Bill Clinton. He continued to advise on counter-terrorism and cybersecurity under President George W. Bush before leaving the administration in 2003. Clarke's bold criticisms of the Bush Administration's pre-9/11 counter-terrorism policies and the decision to invade Iraq sparked intense controversy, but also cemented his reputation as a straight-talking expert in the field. His bestselling memoir, Against All Enemies, offers a candid account of his time in government and has become a classic of contemporary politics.
