Bush" --, "" Prviledged and Confidential fills a large gap in our understanding about how presidents and their cabinet colleagues acquire information about dangers to U.S. security. The President's Intelligence Advisory Board has been a significant, if uneven, source of counsel. Finally, we have a study--well written and well researched--that explains its role over the years. This work is an important addition to every library on intelligence studies, and it will find an appreciative audience as well among a broader community of security students, established scholars, and citizens interested in how the United States attempts to protect itself against foreign and domestic threats."--Loch Johnson, Regents Professor of International Affairs, The University of Georgia" --, " Prviledged and Confidential fills a large gap in our understanding about how presidents and their cabinet colleagues acquire information about dangers to U.S. security.
