The Pentagon’s Brain — Why DARPA Shapes More Than Weapons
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This Mini Explainer introduces The Pentagon’s Brain: An Uncensored History of DARPA by Annie Jacobsen, focusing on how military research systems shape technology, perception, and long-term institutional power.
It offers a concise structural overview of DARPA’s logic: prevent surprise, fund radical innovation early, and turn uncertainty into permanent research expansion.
