'A fascinating collection of perspectives that chronicles the development of intelligence studies during the past 30 years from a "missing dimension" of modern history to a mature discipline fully able to hold its own with its scholarly forbears.' David Robarge, CIA Chief Historian. Explores the history of publications that have shed light on the 'secret world' of intelligence and espionage Intelligence Studies gained prominence in the 1970s - when the secrets of Bletchley Park were revealed and the CIA was publicly chastised for 'dirty tricks' - and is now one of the most dynamic sub-disciplines within Diplomatic History and International Relations. Yet those studying intelligence seldom pause to reflect upon the historiography of their chosen subject. They are preoccupied with doing Intelligence Studies, rather than reflecting on how it is done and has been done in the past. This problem is addressed here, through an exploration of the literature of intelligence - a disparate, yet fast-evolving body of work that places investigative journalists alongside academics, official historians and former 'insiders'.
