About
"This is the first book of its kind that employs hundreds of Chinese sources to explain the history and current state of Chinese Communist intelligence operations. It profiles the leaders, top spies, and important operations in the history of China's espionage organs, and links to an extensive online glossary of Chinese language intelligence and security terms. This work allows the reader an unprecedented view into the murky world of Chinese espionage both past and present, enabling a better understanding of how pervasive and important is its influence both in China and abroad"--
