An exhaustive study of all facets of the intelligence profession, this book treats military intelligence as the process of collecting, analyzing, and disseminating information for use by commanders and policymakers. Contributors to this volume, writing for intelligence officers and analysts at all levels, examine the structure of the intelligence community, the role of the Department of Defense, intelligence information, and counterintelligence. In a final section, the areas of convergence and tension between the military intelligence community and Congress, the media, and research and development institutions are explored.
