"Guarding the Future: The Life of R. James Woolsey" by Bob Burke and Barry Epperson

R. James Woolsey has spent most of his adult life seeking a more secure future for the United States and the world. As the nation’s Director of Central Intelligence, arms control negotiator, and Under Secretary of the Navy, Woolsey advised four American presidents—two Republican and two Democrats. As a lawyer, he is one of the most influential voices in Washington on energy, intelligence, and security. In recent years, through thousands of media interviews, speeches, op-eds, and white papers, he has preached the cogent message that America’s future national security depends upon our treatment of the environment and weaning ourselves from the chokehold of foreign oil.

He is a leader in advancing freedom and democracy to other countries and in developing alternative fuels to decrease freedom-loving nations’ dependence on the Middle East. He has sounded the alarm about the need to increase cyber security for American business and government and has warned of the dire consequences of an electromagnetic pulse attack.
