Thomas Rid is an expert on technology and national security, as well as one of the first to warn of Russian interference into American politics, months before 2016's presidential election. In this eye-opening, troubling book, Rid exposes some of the century's most significant lying and spying operations. He covers a CIA fake publishing empire that produces Germany's top jazz magazine, the rise in leaks, and the role of a Russian "troll farm" in the 2016 election. Active Measures does more than just expose; it offers tools to combat lies and deception.
