No one man should have all that power : how Rasputins manipulate the world / by Barshad, Amos,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Amos Barshad has long been fascinated by the powerful. But not by elected officials or natural leaders--he's interested in the scheming advisors, the dark figures who wield power in the shadows. And, as Barshad shows in 'No One Man Should Have All That Power', the natural habitat of these manipulators is not only political backrooms. It's anywhere power dynamics exist--from Hollywood to drug cartels, from recording studios to the NFL.In this wildly entertaining, wide-ranging, and insightful exploration of the phenomenon, Barshad takes readers into the lives of more than a dozen of these notorious figures, explores how they got there and how they wielded control, what led to their downfall or staved it off, and what lessons we can take from them [...]"--from dust jacket.

The Russia trap : how our shadow war with Russia could spiral into nuclear catastrophe / by Beebe, George,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."A former head of CIA's Russia analysis shows how Washington and Moscow may be headed toward nuclear annihilation. After years of unsuccessful post-Cold War efforts to forge a cooperative relationship, it is now clear that the U.S. and Russia have become competitors, not partners--no matter what some politicians would have the American public believe. And this competition is quickly spiraling into enmity thanks to new strategic weapons, shifts in world power, and unsettled regional conflicts. Meanwhile, the rules that kept the Cold War from getting hot no longer apply. The inherent advantages of cyber attackers over cyber defense are incentivizing aggression and fueling feelings of vulnerability. And the arms control regimes and deterrence strategies that once contained dangers are ironically stoking mistrust between the U.S. and Russia. Americans don't worry about nuclear war the way they did thirty years ago. But they should because the danger has become even greater today. Beebe's terrifying but essential new work allows us to face this reality--and, in doing so, to take steps to divert the world from this path."--Provided by publisher.
