À propos de cet audio

Discover the definitive history of DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency, in this Pulitzer Prize finalist from the author of the New York Times best seller Area 51.

No one has ever written the history of the Defense Department's most secret, most powerful, and most controversial military science R&D agency. In the first-ever history about the organization, New York Times best-selling author Annie Jacobsen draws on inside sources, exclusive interviews, private documents, and declassified memos to paint a picture of DARPA, or "the Pentagon's brain", from its Cold War inception in 1958 to the present.

This is the audiobook on DARPA - a compelling narrative about this clandestine intersection of science and the American military and the often frightening results.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"A fascinating and unsettling portrait of the secretive US government agency.... Jacobsen walks a fine line in telling the story of the agency and its innovations without coming across as a cheerleader or a critic." ( Publishers Weekly starred review)
"Filled with the intrigue and high stakes of a spy novel, Jacobsen's history of DARPA is as much a fascinating testament to human ingenuity as it is a paean to endless industrial warfare." ( Kirkus Reviews)

Lots of really interesting information if you can get past the awkward way the author speaks...! Why don’t we ever get multiple choices of narrators?? There are some books I’d listen to if only there were another narrator, but here we are. I’d still recommend this book if you have any interest.

Great Book, Not the Best Narration!

Absolutely struggled to finish it, the first and last hours of this audiobook were the only " kinda" good parts.. The author give u some good material at the beginning just to keep u hoping and begging for anything good for the next 14hrs... My god.. such a waist of time.

This is my first audiobook that i will exchange..
