Thwarting Enemies at Home and Abroad
Johnson's overview of counterintelligence provides a detailed summary of the field that, perhaps surprisingly, holds up well over time. If you can get beyond the absence of references to tradecraft in the digital age, when one presumes it might be easier to communicate with and manage an agent across borders, the fundamentals of the field certainly remain relevant. While this book was written at the end of the Cold War, Johnson's experiences date back to World War II when technology was drastically different from the late 1980s. Getting beyond this point, we see that counterintelligence is fundamentally about relationships between people.
One aspect of Johnson's book that holds up particularly well is the chapter on interrogation. That Johnson was a CIA officer and only 14 years later sections of the CIA, presumably not the counterintelligence ones, that would forget the lessons of the subsection "The Myth of Torture" is disturbing.
One aspect of counterintelligence that is briefly mentioned and implied throughout, but certainly not given its due, are the ethics of lying to and manipulating others for the benefit of one's own country and career.
