Russia - Women - Culture
Very good value.
Paul Todd's "Global Intelligence" is a relatively up to date (post-9/11) account of modern intelligence. The book considers the impact of 9/11 on the global intelligence scene, and gives a well footnoted and informative overview of some of the new technology available to intelligence agencies, before moving onto an assessment and contrasting of US intelligence, UK intelligence, other EU intelligence, Russian intelligence, Israeli intelligence, and a chapter giving a briefer overview of other international players. The book then outlines some conclusions which you may or may not agree with, but which are again very information-heavy and well footnoted.
Good value, informative, apparently reliable, and with a few gems in the footnotes to springboard on to further study if you wish.
