Facts and Fears

This book sets a lot of records for me, among them "Highest frequency of acronyms ever" and "Most occurrences of the phrase "speaking truth to power" by someone in power. "

Clappers memoirs are interesting and gives a tiny bit of insight into the (apparently rather sheltered) life of a US intelligence professional (not unlike Comey's effort in that regard.) Still, you can't shake the feeling that it's only showing the surface, and that there's a lot of polishing and retrofitting going on.

Well worth the read, but needs to be taken with the obligatory pinch of salt.
