Updated to include contemporary events of 2020, Andrew Fowler’s account of Julian Assange’s rise and fall is a damning indictment of the lengths to which Western Governments will go to keep their secrets. As Assange languishes in London’s maximum security Belmarsh prison, in The Most Dangerous Man in the World: Julian Assange and Wikileaks’ Fight for Freedom, Andrew documents how a computer hacker with a turbulent childhood became a journalist and America’s Public Enemy No 1, facing up to 175 years in prison for revealing the truth about the business of Government.
