摘要

An intense, captivating, and challenging book, John Walker's My Life as a Spy reflects an important, growing political discussion about information security. Furthermore, it is interesting for a variety of reasons-first, as a true-life spy story. Curious readers will wonder how Walker got away with selling secrets to the Soviet Union and will compare his experience to the depiction of spies, fictional or otherwise, in the media of popular culture. Second, the suspense-ful narrative not only offers insight into a successful spy program but also addresses the mistakes that led to Walker's undoing. Third, the book appeals on a personal level, revealing what this master spy was like and why he would risk his own life as well as the lives of friends and family members (notably, Walker's plans to expand his spy ring over time even extended to his own son). Fourth, My Life as a Spy raises powerful, thought-provoking political questions by addressing the disingenuousness of politicians, America's historical tendency to inflate the severity of Soviet threats, the Navy's weak security measures, the Department of Defense's longstanding practice of overclassifying records, and the matter of whether or not compromises of secret documents actually cause harm to national security.
