"This tightly written book identifies shortfalls in the current approach to homeland security and proposes a comprehensive strategy to address the challenges of homeland defense. This is not an issue that the Brookings Institution discovered on 11 September, and the depth of analysis reflects that this collection of scholars has wrestled with this issue for some time." --George Galdorisi, U.S. Naval Institute, "Proceedings", 9/1/2002
.".. a methodical and highly serious account, collaboratively written by a team of Brookings scholars.... 'Protecting the American Homeland' is a well-thought out and welcome contribution to the current national dialogue as it offers an important perspective for our post-911 national security needs." -- "Bookwatch", 10/1/2002
"In their work, Michael E. O'Hanlon, Peter R. Orszag, Ivo H. Daalder, I. M. Destler, David L. Gunter, Robert E. Litan, and James B. Steinberg provide a brisk, clear and punchy prescription for US homeland security....In summary, this is an excellent book: clearly and logically framed, relentlessly policy-oriented, and sound and sensible in its recommendations with scarcely a wasted sentence in 188 pages." --Mark Smith, Mountbatten Centre for International Studies, University of Southampton, "Contemporary Security Policy", 8/1/2003
"Very useful for assessing priorities and costs." -- "Future Survey", 7/1/2002
.".. a thoughtful survey.... Replete with detail and arguments that are ably presented for the reader." --Dr. George Quester, University of Maryland, "Parameters", 4/1/2003
"Protecting the American Homeland is a logical, flowing, step-by-step analysis to defining policy issues involving the development of a comprehensive protection plan. [A] useful and thoughtful analy[sis]." --Warren M. Wiggins, "Naval War College Review", 3/1/2003
"Produced by scholars at the Brookings Institution, it offers an analysis of what needs to be done to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future. Despite the authors' admission that their analysis is preliminary, the discussion is both important and worthwhile....Protecting the American Homeland establishes a good foundation for understanding the challenges that lie before us. Military political, and business leaders throughout our nation should read it." --Command Sgt Major James H. Clifford, "Air & Space Power Journal", 12/1/2003
