A thrilling and troubling tale of murder, espionage, shadowy schemes, and a looming threat to America . . .First, a highly respected expert on Iran and Saudi Arabia is killed in his home in the suburbs of Washington, D.C.—with a warning note left at the crime scene by the highly professional killers. Shortly thereafter, an up-and-coming NSA official who has worked on FISA cases and Middle East issues is murdered. A second warning note is left. How are the killings connected? And who may be next?In this compelling thriller, anything is possible and no one—even in the highest ranks of government—is safe . . .“I served with Bill when he was a senior executive at the CIA where he was a rock star. You will ask yourself if this book is based on fact or fiction and maybe even prophecy. Read for enjoyment, but don’t expect it to put you to sleep at night. It will stimulate you to do some serious pondering of the story line. A great read!”—Lt. Gen. (Ret.) William G. Boykin, US Army“My friend, retired CIA officer, Bill Rooney has the guts to touch a raw nerve. What’s in this book could very well happen here.” —Former NRA President and Lt. Col. (Ret.)

Sorghum is one of the world’s major cereals, cultivated in the semi-arid tropics for a growing range of uses. Like other crops it faces the need to meet rising demand whilst reducing its environmental impact and adapting to the challenges of climate change. This volume summarises the wealth of research addressing these challenges.Part 1 explores the genetic diversity and genomics of sorghum. This provides the foundation for Part 2 which reviews advances in conventional and marker-assisted breeding and their use to develop high-yielding and stress-resistant varieties. The final part of the book discusses ways of improving cultivation to make the most of new varieties, from nutrient and water management to better control of diseases, insects and weeds.With its distinguished editor and international team of expert authors, this will be a standard work for cereal scientists, sorghum breeders and growers as well as government and non-government agencies supporting sorghum cultivation. It is accompanied by a companion volume which reviews the range of uses of sorghum and cultivation in different regions.
