The Warning Solution : Intelligent Analysis in the Age of Information Overload

For the first time in human history, people have too much information. We are no longer swimming in information; we are drowning in it. How to think about and how to solve this problem are the subjects of this book.

Based on over 20 years of personal experience as an analyst, lawyer, accountant, linguist, area expert and military officer, this book outlines, in detail, models and techniques developed by the author and used by professional intelligence analysts -- techniques that rapidly cut through mounds of data and pull together the right pieces of information at the right time. It is the kind of analysis that warns the reader -- gives him or her time to do something about a crisis before it happens.

The Warning Solution is a unique book. No other book on information overload is as concise, as graphically intense or as practical. Most importantly, no other book successfully takes lessons learned from a lifetime of analysis and makes them easily accessible to the general reader.
