Synopsis
The National Security Agency is the world's most powerful, most far-reaching espionage. Now with a new afterword describing the security lapses that preceded the attacks of September 11, 2001, Body of Secrets takes us to the inner sanctum of America's spy world. In the follow-up to his bestselling Puzzle Palace , James Banford reveals the NSA's hidden role in the most volatile world events of the past, and its desperate scramble to meet the frightening challenges of today and tomorrow. Here is a scrupulously documented account--much of which is based on unprecedented access to previously undisclosed documents--of the agency's tireless hunt for intelligence on enemies and allies alike. Body of secrets is a riveting analysis of this most clandestine of agencies, a major work of history and investigative journalism. A New York Times Notable Book

- e***l (148)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen maandGeverifieerde aankoopThe book I ordered from Winston was a great value, shipped instantly, and arrived in mint condition. I also very much appreciated that the dust jacket came with a plastic protector which made the book look brand new. I will definitely be looking at more offerings from Winston in the future!
- g***a (869)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen maandGeverifieerde aankoopalthough book was rated as new, it arrived with many pages underlined in ink. When I informed seller, his reply was insufficient: "Sorry about that i have about 15k. Books I do my best to accurately look them over. But I occasionally i miss something." When I replied to that, asking for a discount because the book was misrepresented, the seller did not reply at all.
