The brevity of this guide to thinking is a guide! Spies can't be slow thinkers, as the case study shows. This book has not been fluffed out to make it longer - refreshing and good. Interesting if DADA is unknown to you. ( )

Good insights

Good outline of the intelligence gathering and analysis process. Provides a basic framework for data analysis, decision-making and taking action. ( )

Not much to it but it was a fun read. Braddock discusses the thought process and how a spy analyses situations using a confrontation with a druggy on a train as a frame of reference (which happened to him on the to a covert meeting). This is a Kindle single so it can be read easily in one sitting and in less than an hour. ( )
