A New Vision of Spycraft: Or Necessary Notations On Espionage - Paperback

Finely crafted by a current academic researcher and espionage enthusiast, A New Vision of Spycraft provides insight into the techniques, methodologies, and attitudes characteristic of Anglo-American intelligence agencies as well as their continuing aim to be largely free of parliamentary oversight.

As a rising academician who has studied spycraft and espionage in several universities and think tanks, Daniele-Hadi Irandoost brings the full power of historical art and science to bear on this mercurial, frequently invisible, and generally misunderstood subject. Certainly, distinctions between desk-bound intelligence analysts and far more romantic field agents are explored, although only as a means to unearth a number of unsettling facts about this particular side of national life. As such, this eye-opening book is a must-read for anyone interested in the gritty realities behind intelligence agencies worldwide.
