This book offers a vast conceptual and theoretical exploration of
the ways intelligence analysis must change in order to succeed
against today's most dangerous combatants and most complex
irregular theatres of conflict. Intelligence Analysis: How to Think
in Complex Environments fills a void in the existing literature on
contemporary warfare by examining the theoretical and conceptual
foundations of effective modern intelligence analysis—the type of
analysis needed to support military operations in modern, complex
operational environments. This volume is an expert guide for
rethinking intelligence analysis and understanding the true nature
of the operational environment, adversaries, and most importantly,
the populace. Intelligence Analysis proposes substantive
improvements in the way the U.S. national security system
interprets intelligence, drawing on the groundbreaking work of
theorists ranging from Carl von Clauswitz and Sun Tzu to M.
Mitchell Waldrop, General David Petraeus, Richards Heuer, Jr.,
Orson Scott Card, and others. The new ideas presented here will
help the nation to amass a formidable, cumulative intelligence
power, with distinct advantages over any and all adversaries of the
future regardless of the level of war or type of operational
environment.
