Product Description Who is Jack Ryan?Lowly analyst, James Bondian secret agent, President of the United States?All of the above?Or is he just Tom Clancy's mouthpiece for what is right and wrong with politics and policy today?What impact did Red Storm Rising have on Ronald Reagan's policy for dealing with the Soviet Union? Was A Clear and Present Danger a trial balloon for the administration's international war on drugs? Did the climax of Debt of Honor foreshadow the actual terrorist plans for 9/11?... And how did Jack Ryan, a lowly analyst, wind up becoming the President of the United States? Was it wishful thinking or a choreographed roadmap for the time when the defense of America was placed firmly in the hands of backroom strategists? The Jack Ryan Agenda places each of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels ( from his bestselling debute of The Hunt for the Red October to his latest The Teeth of the Tiger) within the historical context of the U.S./International situation at the time each book was published. The Clinton years are examined as well; during this time, Clancy occasionally embraced a "by any means necessary" modus operandi that included Special Forces assassins taking on rogue environmentalists.Turning to film, The Jack Ryan Agenda explores how the movie versions differ from the Clancy's canon-and notes the author's displeasure with the way Hollywood liberals took liberties with his story lines.In the bestselling tradition of The Magic of Harry Potter, The Biology of Star Trek, and The Science of Superman, The Jack Ryan Agenda explores this brand name dynamo's work in the context of the real world where patriot games are a clear and present danger and the sum of all fears are executive orders without remorse. About the Author William Terdoslavich lives in New York City. Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. The Jack Ryan AgendaONEMeet Jack RyanSo who is Jack Ryan?Ryan was born as the figment of Tom Clancy's imagination as the underestimated good guy who must always triumph over adversity. He can do whatever the author wants him to do. Ryan can prove any point, get the last word in, and make the right decision when the time to act is nigh.And Ryan, as a result, suffers from the same problem affecting all fictional heroes ... each daring deed must be outdone in the next book. By the time the reader gets to the fifth or tenth installment, the hero begins to look unbelievably superhuman.If Jack Ryan were a real person, what would his biography look like?Ryan's first appearance in print was in Hunt for Red October, set loosely in the early 1980s, sometime during Ronald Reagan's term in office. Ryan is in his early thirties, which places his birthday somewhere around 1950 or so. He is a baby boomer, coming to adulthood too late to have been directly affected by the Vietnam War. Son of a Baltimore detective and brought up a good Catholic, Jack Ryan is imbued with a sense of right and wrong that is certain and doubtless. Attending Boston College, a Jesuit school, Ryan kept his hair short, never tried smoking a joint, didn't protest, probably didn't get laid, and opted for Marine Corps ROTC. Commissioned, he served briefly in the corps as a platoon leader, his career cut short by a helicopter accident over Crete that caused a major back injury in the JFK tradition. (Though, for some strange reason, no matter what physical exertion Ryan makes in later books, his "bad" back never acts up.)Ryan marries rich, but still goes on to make his own fortune. Cathy Muller is the daughter of a successful executive at Merrill Lynch. She goes to medical school, becoming an outstanding eye surgeon. (She has been driving a Porsche since her sixteenth birthday.)Along the way, Ryan also picks up his doctorate, albeit in history, and does the good son-in-law bit. He goes to work at Merrill Lynch, where he makes the right investments early in the high-tech boom, becoming independently wealthy. Safely enscon

Tom Clancy's second classic No 1 bestselling thriller -- a chillingly authentic vision of modern war -- now reissued in a new cover. Three Muslim terrorists who destroyed the Soviet Union's largest petrochemical plant thought they were striking a blow for freedom. What they had done, unknowingly, was fire the first shots in World War III. Desperately short of oil, the Kremlin hawks see only one way of solving their problem: seize supplies in the Persian Gulf. To do that, they must first neutralise NATO's forces and eliminate their response -- and so they develop Red Storm, a dazzling master plan of diplomatic subterfuge and intense rearmament. The battle lines are drawn and Armageddon beckons!

Time and again, Tom Clancy's novels have been praised not only for their big-scale drama and propulsive narrative drive but for their cutting-edge prescience in predicting future events.In The Bear and the Dragon, the future is very near at hand indeed.Newly elected in his own right, Jack Ryan has found that being President has gotten no easier: domestic pitfalls await him at every turn; there's a revolution in Liberia; the Asian economy is going down the tubes; and now, in Moscow, someone may have tried to take out the chairman of the SVR--the former KGB--with a rocket-propelled grenade. Things are unstable enough in Russia without high-level assassination, but even more disturbing may be the identities of the potential assassins. Were they political enemies, the Russian Mafia, or disaffected former KGB? Or, Ryan wonders, is something far more dangerous at work here?Ryan is right. For even while he dispatches his most trusted eyes and ears, including black ops specialist John Clark, to find out the truth of the matter, forces in China are moving ahead with a plan of truly audacious proportions. If they succeed, the world as we know it will never look the same. If they fail...the consequences will be unspeakable.Blending the exceptional realism and authenticity that are his hallmarks with intricate plotting, razor-sharp suspense, and a remarkable cast of characters, this is Clancy at his best--and there is none better.
