Description: Secrecy has never stopped people from writing about intelligence. From memoirs and academic texts to conspiracy-laden exposés and spy novels, writing on intelligence abounds despite the intelligence services' reluctance to open their activities up to public scrutiny. Now this new account uncovers intelligence historiography's hugely important role in shaping popular understandings of intelligence.
