Andrew F. Krepinevich is the president of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, an independent policy research institute. A graduate of West Point and Harvard, he has served as a consultant on military affairs for the Department of Defense and the CIA, among other institutions.

“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
