SNOWDEN
By Ted Rall

The first biography of Edward Snowden will be this one, in graphic novel form. Why did Snowden, and no one else, decide to step forward and take on the risks associated with becoming a whistleblower and then a fugitive? Rall delves into Snowden’s early life and work experience, his personality, and the larger issues of privacy, new surveillance technologies, and the recent history of government intrusion.
