Zarate, a senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, is a former federal prosecutor who joined the U.S. Treasury Department after the 9/11 attacks to figure out ways to constrict the financing of terrorist groups. Relying heavily on anecdotes, acronyms and actual case studies, he provides detailed explanations of secretive operations far less publicized than ground wars and drone strikes.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 363.32517 Za Checked In Add Copy to MyList
