Recenzii

An important first-hand account of the Snowden affair

To put it simply, Greenwald has had one hell of a dizzying run, at the white-hot centre of the media universe as the most reliable source for NSA surveillance scoops
Compelling, powerful, shocking, important
The inside account. Action-packed, engrossing and polemical
Persuasive, thrilling and necessary
Impassioned
Pulse-pounding
In Glenn Greenwald, Edward Snowden found a perfect match. If you want to get a handle on what was at stake when Snowden downloaded the government's most precious secrets onto a thumb drive, this book is your primer
Rings with authority
The story of Edward Snowden is remarkable. Has all the makings of a thriller. Greenwald provides an excellent overview, putting the pieces together in a way that daily journalism cannot
At times, this account by Greenwald of how he landed one of the biggest scoops of the century feels like it has come straight out of the pages of a Robert Ludlum thriller
Spectacular. Dedicated, fearless journalism
Between a spy thriller and analysis . . . an impassioned book
Rewarding. Some passages read like a Tom Clancy CIA thriller
An indispensable book for anyone who cares about the future of privacy, not just in the United States but throughout the world
Gripping. Not only does [No Place to Hide] confirm what many have suspected - that surveillance is happening - but it also makes clear that it's happening on an almost unimaginably vast scale
A powerful and persuasive case for the duty to defend our fast-disappearing privacy
The story of a real conspiracy
