Lot Description
STENGEL, Richard. Information Wars. How We Lost the Global Battle Against Disinformation and What We Can Do About It. [2019]. FIRST EDITION, UNCORRECTED PROOF. PRESENTED BY STENGEL TO MADELEINE ALBRIGHT WITH AUTOGRAPH NOTE.
Signed (“Rich”) to Albright: “Dear Madeleine, I wanted you to get an early copy of this. You’ll recognize, of course, the best & worst of State. But this is about an issue that’s not going away, & we still don’t know how to fight. If you’re willing, I’d dearly love a quote from you for the jacket. I hope you’re very well.” Albright provided a quotation for this work, calling Information Wars a “gripping insider account of the U.S. government’s struggle to understand and fight back against a new generation of online threats from extremist messaging and Russian disinformation.” Secretary Albright noted that Stengel “sheds new light on how bad actors leverage technology to undermine trust, and helps us better understand what must be done to protect our democracy.” Secretary Albright’s page tabs mark important passages.
In original binding (condition generally very good).
Provenance: Secretary Madeleine K. Albright (laid in presentation note, bookplate).
