Recenzii
Reviews of the hardback: 'Intelligence for an Age of Terror provides the realistic and comprehensive template necessary for a reform of American intelligence programs. Gregory Treverton has relied on his long experience with the intelligence community and his wide and careful reading to produce what I believe to be the most valuable book on intelligence reform today. It will be widely read within the community, as it deserves to be. I hope it will be equally relied on as we undertake the difficult task of reconceptualizing the daunting challenge of providing understanding to leadership.' Phillip Bobbitt, Columbia University
'Dr Treverton has provided thoughtful ideas for policy makers for improving performance of the U.S. intelligence community. The book will also be a useful guide to those who want to work in one or more of the intelligence organizations.' Robert Inman, University of Texas, Austin and former Deputy Director, Central Intelligence Agency
'More than seven years after 9/11, America's national intelligence services are still struggling to meet the challenges posed by today's terrorist adversaries. In this important new book, Gregory Treverton guides us through the organizational and operational issues faced by the intelligence community, and the profound political and philosophical questions we all face in governing intelligence today. For policy makers and concerned citizens, an essential read.' Brian Jenkins, RAND Corporation
'Greg Treverton is a pro's pro. This superb book is the best guide we will have for a long time to the difficult transition our intelligence community is experiencing from the Cold War to today's Long War with Terror. If you read one book on this subject, read this.' R. James Woolsey, Former Director of Intelligence (1993–1995), Central Intelligence Agency
'This book is [Treverton's] most important yet.' H. Nelson, Choice
