Reviews

The book is a fine contribution to the field of intelligence studies and would be of interest to a wide variety of readers. Choice Well-sourced and precise in its assertions ... for students and practitioners of intelligence, this will be a valuable addition to their collection. It is also worth mentioning that many of these case studies could stand alone as primers or reference material on individual countries and intelligence services. Parameters
