Book excerpt: Dissent in a Democracy profiles government officials who have risked career, reputation, and personal safety to expose the present administration's lies, cover-ups and abuses. Written by former State Department official Army Colonel (ret.) Ann Wright and professor of the geopolitics of peace and war Susan Dixon, this volume offers inspiration, hope, and information about these courageous persons of conscience - whistleblowers like Joseph Wilson and Sibel Edmonds, who revealed cooked intelligence and likely spying; ambassadors who resigned in the run-up to war like John Brady Kiesling and Ann Wright; Craig Murray, who leaked documents revealing human rights abuses on par with Saddam by coalition ally Uzbekistan; and other dissenters and truthtellers whose loyalty to the Constitution and the public ultimately transcended partisan politics.
