Meer over het boek

"In this penetrating history of the Defense Department's most secret, most powerful, and most controversial military science R&D agency, Annie Jacobsen draws on inside sources, exclusive interviews, private documents, and declassified memos to paint a picture of "the Pentagon's brain" from its Cold War inception in 1958 to the present.
