Abstract |
"In the eighty years since Pearl Harbor, the United States has developed a professional intelligence community that is far more effective than most people acknowledge-in part because only intelligence failures see the light of day, while successful collection and analysis remain secret for decades. Intelligence and the State explores the relationship between the community tasked to research and assess intelligence and the national decision makers it serves. The book argues that in order to accept intelligence as a profession, it must be viewed as a non-partisan resource to assist key players in understanding foreign societies and leaders"-- Provided by publisher. |
