Dumaine, Carol, and L. Sergio Germani, eds. New Frontiers of Intelligence Analysis. Washington, DC, and Rome, Italy: Global Futures Partnership of the Sherman Kent School for Intelligence Analysis, the Link Campus University of Malta, and the Gino Germani Center for Comparative Studies of Modernization and Development, 2005.

Peake, Studies 50.1 (Mar. 2006), notes that this work consists of "15 interesting presentations" from "an April 2004 conference in Rome, jointly sponsored by the publishers of this volume.... [T]he idea that changes are necessary in order to cope with the increasing volume of data and complexity of analysis was taken seriously by the participating academic and intelligence professionals, who came from 12 countries and represented 35 organizations. The Introduction by conference co-directors Carol Dumaine and Luigi Sergio Germani outlines the major themes of the book and provides a useful series of guideposts for improving intelligence analysis."

The Intelligence Community's "ability to warn is dependent upon a relatively small cadre of analysts whose goal is to turn fragmentary pieces of information into warning.... Naval Intelligence must shift focus to ensure analytic skills are given the same priority as collection and targeting as it prepares for the future,"

Dunham, Roger C. Spy Sub: A Top Secret Mission to the Bottom of the Pacific. Annapolis, MD: Naval Institute Press, 1996.

Levine, NIPQ, Oct. 1997, finds that Spy Sub does not deliver on what it advertises. In fact, the book is "97 percent the story of routine life aboard a Pacific-based submarine on patrol in the mid-1960s and three percent special operations." The reviewer does straighten out some of the twists that had to be taken to get Spy Sub through the security reviewing authority: The American submarine involved was the USS Halibut (not Viperfish), and the Soviet sub that sank on 11 April 1968 was Golf 722 (not an Echo II).

To Carpenter, History 26.2, Dunham's is "a lively tale," that provides "an intimate revelation of life for a sailor on board a 350-foot SSN 655." The author's story does not tell how the Soviet submarine was recovered.

1. "Air-Minded Considerations for Joint Counterinsurgency Doctrine." Air & Space Power Journal 21, no. 4 (Winter 2007): 63-74.

"Editorial Abstract: According to the author, the recent publication of Army Field Manual 3-24/Marine Corps Warfighting Publication 3-33.5, Counterinsurgency, reflects a distinctly 'surface-minded' perspective. Since airpower possesses unique capabilities, such as speed, range, flexibility, and persistence, he proposes exploiting these 'air-minded' viewpoints to enlarge and enhance what is currently a service-centric doctrine. General Dunlap suggests that doing so would produce a much-improved and well-rounded joint approach."

2. "Developing Joint Counterinsurgency Doctrine: An Airman's Perspective." Joint Force Quarterly 49 (2nd Quarter 2008): 86-92.

The Army’s new Field Manual (FM) 3–24 (designated by the Marine Corps as Warfighting Publication 3–33.5), Counterinsurgency, "superbly articulate[s] a thoughtful landpower [emphasis in original] perspective on the complicated challenge of counterinsurgency (COIN). It does not purport to be, however, a full-dimensional joint approach.... [T]he various groundcentric COIN strategies attempted in Iraq over the years may have proven costly and time-consuming. Exploiting the full capabilities of the whole joint team would seem the wiser course given the complexities of COIN."

Wilcox: "OSS veteran recounts experiences."

Dunlop, Richard. Donovan, America's Master Spy. Chicago: Rand McNally, 1982.

Pforzheimer says that this work has "such shortcomings" that it is not included in Bibliography of Intelligence Literature. Wilcox calls it an "[e]xtensive sympathetic biography."

For Powers, Intelligence Wars (2004), p. 12, and NYRB, 12 May 1983, the author "provides the best account of Donovan's life before the OSS. Unfortunately, his footnotes are ... laborious to consult, and he attributes many statements to Donovan without making it clear when he stated them, or to whom."
