Atticus unveils their foibles and failings.

With years of experience and in-depth knowledge of the workings of public affairs, Atticus breaks through the barriers of current practice and prevailing wisdom to open up concrete options for the most urgently needed reforms.

A lucid and scathing analysis. The vision of a moralist. The style of a great writer.

Atticus is the pseudonym of a senior person in public life who has in the past (and could again, in the future) operated at high level, notably in the areas of intelligence, security and defence, and who has intimate knowledge of the workings of state, practices of political life and its actors.
