Publisher's Summary

This is the first work of its kind to employ 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. Peter Mattis and Matthew Brazil present an unprecedented look into the murky world of Chinese espionage both past and present, enabling a better understanding of how pervasive and important its influence is, both in China and abroad.

A fragmented overview tedious at times

This is not a book for sipping but more of a reference textbook. It is full of useful information for a student of CCP spy craft but a difficult read for the casual reader. The narrator was easy to listen to though I can’t speak to his Chinese pronunciations. Meh.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
