false 971936 5 <B>From two men who know better than anyone how espionage really works, an unprecedented history—heavily illustrated with neverbefore- seen images—of the CIA’s most secretive operations and the gadgets that made them possible</B>.<BR><BR> It is a world where the intrigue of reality exceeds that of fiction. What is an invisible photo used for? What does it take to build a quiet helicopter? How does one embed a listening device in a cat? If these sound like challenges for Q, James Bond’s fictional gadget-master, think again. They’re all real-life devices created by the CIA’s Office of Technical Service—an ultrasecretive department that combines the marvels of state-of-the-art technology with the time-proven traditions of classic espionage. And now, in the first book ever written about this office, the former director of OTS teams up with an internationally renowned intelligence historian to take readers into the laboratory of espionage.<BR><BR> <I>Spycraft</I> tells amazing life and death stories about this littleknown group, much of it never before revealed. Against the backdrop of some of America’s most critical periods in recent history—including the Cold War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the war on terror—the authors show the real technical and human story of how the CIA carries out its missions. 3743283 29 5 2006 Spycraft: The Secret History of the CIA's Spytechs, from Communism to al-Qaeda total:58|5:10|4:24|3:18|2:5|1:1| 58 211 143 21 4 0 false false Sun Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Tue Sep 22 10:18:06 -0700 2009 Thu Sep 24 09:19:47 -0700 2009 more...]]> 1 0 false false Thu Jun 11 22:36:36 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 21 10:10:46 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Tue Aug 25 11:49:22 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 25 11:52:16 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Mon Jul 27 17:29:54 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 27 17:38:30 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Fri Jul 03 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 20 18:57:55 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 05 18:16:08 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Aug 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Aug 07 09:46:43 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 31 18:17:56 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sat Sep 26 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 08 18:41:36 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 26 18:34:12 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Tue Jun 02 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 02 04:48:53 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 02 04:50:15 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sat Jun 27 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Jun 27 04:22:03 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 07 14:30:13 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Fri Oct 31 07:30:54 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 18 18:45:32 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Mon Sep 08 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Jul 19 17:08:53 -0700 2008 Mon Sep 08 20:38:58 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sun Aug 24 19:29:19 -0700 2008 Sun Aug 24 19:34:51 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Fri Jun 06 00:33:56 -0700 2008 Tue Aug 12 00:54:43 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Fri Sep 12 15:43:01 -0700 2008 Fri Sep 12 15:43:30 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Thu Jul 24 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Aug 08 21:11:36 -0700 2008 Fri Aug 08 21:13:13 -0700 2008 3 0 false false Wed Dec 10 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Sep 04 18:27:16 -0700 2008 Fri Feb 27 23:23:56 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Mon Jun 23 09:07:51 -0700 2008 Sat Oct 04 09:02:24 -0700 2008 4 0 true false Tue Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Aug 10 07:23:54 -0700 2008 Sun Aug 10 07:25:10 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Wed Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Aug 27 09:55:18 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 01 07:00:46 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun May 31 10:41:53 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 09 04:26:57 -0700 2008 Sun May 31 10:41:53 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=971936
