(This book is co-authored by the computer scientist who recently gave testimony at the California hearings. With great appreciation to the experts who have already weighed in on the issue of electronic voting, Thompson packs some impressive credentials in the area of security)


"As featured in 60 Minutes II, The Washington Post, Associated Press, and coming soon to a bookstore near you, The Mezonic Agenda: Hacking the Presidency. A tale of one software security expert, a cryptic CD, and the U.S. Presidential election hanging in the balance. The Mezonic Agenda: Hacking the Presidency is the first of its kind cyber-thriller where the reader can “hack along” with the hero of the novel. The novel stands alone as an entertaining and informative story for those looking for a good read. For the more tech-savvy readers the accompanying CD and website, www.mezonicagenda.com, offers the same software that the novel’s hero, Dr. Chad Davis, must crack in order to save the upcoming elections. Additionally the appendices give the reader a great non-fiction starting point to learn more about voting, security, and examples of potential software exploits."

"The threat of voter fraud has existed from day one and no matter what technology we use, someone, somewhere will find a way to break into what we deem to be secure. Our best defense is the transparency, traceability, and understanding of how voting machines and the voting process works. For more information on voting and software security, visit our website, www.mezonicagenda.com, or better yet buy our book! The country’s future is in the balance!"
