CLINE : Secrets spies and scholars (fülszöveg)
In SECRETS, SPIES and SCHOLARS — for the first time — Ray S. Cline, a former top level CIA official with operational experience, puts the triumphs as well as the disasters of American intelligence into a meaningful perspective — encompassing national political processes and decision-making. The book contains many illustrative accounts of what espionage, counterespionage and other intelligence work at the top levels of government are really like, including the operational duties of a station chief and the contributions of the scholar analyst.
Dr. Cline met a "clandestine payroll," served more than ten years on intelligence missions abroad, and — uniquely — held the job of top intelligence analyst in both the CIA and the Department of State. The author has provided strategic intelligence analyses and estimates for every United States President since Franklin D. Roosevelt. His comprehensive, objective and highly instructive work outlines how the American central intelligence system can be revitalized and can reachieve the horror which was once accorded it.
