"Philip Mudd is an intelligence officer whose analysis is rarely wrong, and a public servant whose moral compass is always right. Mudd has the unique ability to not only find meaning out of chaos, but also the ability to clearly pass on that information to the policy makers who need it."-George J. Tenet, Former Director of Central Intelligence "Takedown is a must read for anyone who needs to understand terrorism, intelligence or the inner workings of the government's national security apparatus"-John Miller, Senior Correspondent at CBS News "A riveting, behind-the-scenes account of the world of counterterrorism.
