"[T]he transformation of intelligence architectures, particularly in the West, is no less profound than that of the weapons, platforms and warfighting systems they are designed to support and enhance."

"The CIA ... [is] fighting a Freedom of Information Act request to reveal the 1999 intel budget, claiming that exposing the numbers would pose a threat to national security."

DuPree,
Sherry Sherrod, and Herbert C. DuPree. Exposed!!! Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Unclassified Reports on Churches and Church Leaders. Washington, DC: Middle Atlantic Regional Press, 1993.
In the judgment of Theoharis, JAH 80.4, this book of reprinted documents "is of limited value." The DuPrees' "introduction to the forty-three pages of reprinted FBI documents is perfunctory, and they offer no rationale for the selection of specific case files and for reprinting the specific documents. Their sample is neither comprehensive nor representative.... [T]he prospective researcher will more profitably consult Unlocking the Files of the FBI," by Haines and Langbart.

(Feb. 1962): 65-80.
According to Sexton, this "somewhat polemical examination of the decisions and actions of key American political and military leaders ... attributes the Pearl Harbor disaster to a failure of leadership on General Marshall's part."

Dupuy, Trevor
N., editor-in-chief. International Military and Defense Encyclopedia.
6 vols. Washington, DC: Brassey's, 1993.
Brown, IJI&C 6.3, calls this work "truly marvelous in terms of scope, breadth, and depth"; it is "highly readable" and its "editing is decidedly uniform."
For Cohen, FA 73.2, this is a "mammoth -- and too expensive -- work." Its "great strength ... is its clear exposition of technical issues.... Yet too much space goes to articles of general political or historical interest that are covered in non-specialized encyclopedias.... Still, the breadth and lucidity of the technical articles carry these handsomely printed volumes along, making the encyclopedia an outstanding resource for students of military affairs." See also, Surveillant 3.2/3.

Durbin, Richard J. "Holes in America's Defense." Washington Post, 9 Jul. 2004, A19. [http://www.washingtonpost.com]
Senator Durbin (D-IL) argues that while the SSCI report "reveals in stark terms that in many key areas, the prewar intelligence regarding Iraq's threat to the United States was neither reliable nor accurate," it "tells only half of the story." Missing from the report are "the ways intelligence was used, misused, misinterpreted or ignored by administration policymakers in deciding to go to war and in making the case to the American people that war with Iraq was necessary.... [W]e have a report that asks only some of the right questions and, at best, comes to only some of the right conclusions."

Warren, WIR 15.4, says that "Dux is so factually challenged that little in his book can be believed except the generalities that could have been gotten from books or newspapers. Hogwash is a totally inadequate term for The Secret Man.... [N]othing Dux writes of his work for the CIA is true," including any affiliation with the Agency.
