Description
Since its creation in 1947, the CIA has been at the heart of America's security apparatus.
It has also been the subject of major national and international controversies, and been subject to accusations of poor performance and failure, most notably over the 9/11 attacks and Iraq's weapons of mass destruction.
Written by intelligence scholars and experts, this book offers the reader a lively and authoritative survey of the CIA past and present.
The history of the agency is presented through the prism of its declassified documents, with each being supplemented by insightful contextual analysis.
The book chronicles the evolution of the CIA, its remarkable successes, clandestine operations, and its ongoing struggle to maintain American security in an age of proliferating threats.
