The idea of espionage might immediately bring to mind images of danger, state secrets, and cutting-edge technologies. While these can be elements of intelligence operations, they do not provide a complete picture. There are numerous methods intelligence agencies, such as the CIA, might employ to gather information, and any number of threats that might be examined given the political climate of the day. This compelling volume examines the models intelligence agencies around the world have used both in the past and present, notable individuals, and the intelligence priorities of the Middle East

Espionage-the practice of spying to gather secret information-isn't a new method of gaining an edge on a competitor or enemy. However, technology has opened new doors to this sometimes illegal covert activity. Many countries, including the United States, even have government-sanctioned spies. There's some truth in the James Bond stories! In this book, the methods and tools of espionage and anti-espionage are examined, including surveillance, bugging, spy satellites, drones, cryptography, and cyberwarfare. Readers will love this intriguing and in-depth look into the world of intelligence gathering

Highlights of the volume include pioneering essays on the methodology of intelligence studies by Michael Fry and Miles Hochstein, and the future perils of the surveillance state by James Der Derian. Two leading authorities on the history of Soviet/Russian intelligence, Christopher Andrew and Oleg Gordievsky, contribute essays on the final days of the KGB. Also, the mythology surrounding the life of Second World War intelligence chief, Sir William Stephenson, The Man Called Intrepid', is penetrated in a persuasive revisionist account by Timothy Naftali. The collection is rounded off by a series
