This book reminds me of Tom Clancy's novels; tons of federal agency -names, job titles, acronyms- who all appear to be doing things that sound the same. It can get very confusing. I didn't keep track but would say roughly 2 dozen folks (or less) that float in and out of the same federal and commercial job posts; a very small world where everyone seems to know each other.

The jumping back and forth in time was a bit confusing but it would have to be done to cover all the events and career paths running in parallel, and follow the hand-offs to the next generations.

A very good read if you want to see the history of the cyber world, from the US government's perspective; it filled in alot of gaps in my knowledge about things I'd heard in the news over the years.
