Strategy expert Andrew Krepinevich reveals the biggest and most profound dangers facing America today, and what the country can do to prevent them. Now featuring an all new scenario on Afghanistan.

A global pandemic finds millions swarming across the U.S. border. Major American cities are leveled by black-market nukes. China's growing civil unrest ignites a global showdown. Pakistan's collapse leads to a hunt for its nuclear weapons. What if the worst that could happen actually happens? How will we respond? Are we prepared?

These are the questions that Andrew F. Krepinevich asks-and answers-in this timely and often chilling book. As a military expert and consultant, Krepinevich must think the unthinkable based on the latest intelligence and geopolitical trends-and devise a response in the event our worst nightmares become reality.

As riveting as a thriller, 7 Deadly Scenarios reveals the forces-both overt and covert-that are in play; the real ambitions of world powers, terrorist groups, and rogue states; and the actions and counteractions both our enemies and our allies can be expected to take-and what we must do to prepare before it's too late.


Industry Reviews
"Andrew Krepinevich is one of the most insightful voices we now have on national security issues. You can read this book--or we can go on learning the hard way." --Thomas E. Ricks, military correspondent, Washington Post, and author of Fiasco: The American Military Adventure in Iraq

"This insightful and provocative book must be read by our nation's leaders, and those who are charged with protecting us now and into the next decade." --Bing West, author of The Strongest Tribe and No True Glory

"Andrew Krepinevich has shown, once again, how best to think about the unthinkable. This prescient book identifies the all-too-real threats that our country faces and prescribes the steps that the president, the military, and Congress must take to meet them." --Senator Joe Lieberman

"Andrew Krepinevich is one of the most original and insightful strategic thinkers of our time....His thought provoking scenarios of the most critical areas of national security policy raise profound and necessary questions that must be addressed today in order to prevail tomorrow." --Senator Jack Reed

"Compelling.... the scenarios vividly illustrate how recent changes in technology, demographics, economics and war-fighting can expose little-suspected, but easily exploited, chinks in America's armor.... I would feel ... reassured today to see President Barack Obama with a copy of military futurist Krepinevich's 7 Deadly Scenarios. Hillary Clinton and Robert Gates would do well to put it on their reading lists, too. And so should you."--Wall Street Journal
