Sommario/riassunto

This ebook consists of a summary of the ideas, viewpoints and facts presented by Stephen Flynn in his book "The Edge of Disaster: Rebuilding a Resiliant Nation". This summary offers a concise overview of the entire book in less than 30 minutes reading time. However this work does not replace in any case Stephen Flynn's book.<br>Flynn argues that America has learned very little from the 9/11 attacks and Hurricane Katrina, and has become a vulnerable nation. Therefore he outlines practical solutions to enhance the preparedness to ensure national security. <br>
