British Intelligence is the oldest, most experienced organization
of its kind in the world, the unseen hand behind so many world
events, and glamorized by James Bond. Despite the change in role,
from a global power controlling an Empire that covered much of the
world, to a mere partner in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
(NATO) and the European Union, the country's famed security and
intelligence apparatus continues largely intact, and recognized as
"punching above its weight." Feared by the Soviets, admired and
trusted by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), British
Intelligence has provided the hidden dimension to the conduct of
domestic and foreign policy, with the added mystique of Whitehall
secrecy, a shroud that for years protected the identities of the
shadowy figures who recruited the sources, broke the codes, and
caught the spies. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of
the British Intelligence covers the history through a chronology,
an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography.
The dictionary section has over 1,000 cross-referenced entries on
specific operations, spies and their handlers, the moles and
defectors, top leaders, and main organizations. This book is an
excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone
wanting to know more about the British Intelligence.
