According to Rich, WIR 15.1, the authors "reveal for the first time the creation of the Sino-Soviet alliance that led to involvement in the Korean invasion." In addition, they show that "a lack of accurate intelligence about the real prospects for North Korean success in the proposed invasion of South Korea indirectly injured the Soviet-Chinese relationship."

Peake, Studies 51.1 (Mar. 2007), advises that this is the story of the author's efforts to fill in the gaps about his father's life. Along the way, there are "chapters with irrelevant [and inaccurate] detail" and "excessive comparisons with the life of Gatsby, that confuse rather than elucidate." The reviewer concludes that the work "is inaccurate, speculative, and dull."

From abstract: "[T]he first Soviet atomic bomb in August 1949 was not accurately predicted by the British. Meanwhile British war planning centred on the year 1957, based -- it was argued -- on strategic forecasts. Yet the impact of recently released intelligence material throws this into question, and instead reveals that the date reflected British war readiness, rather than when British intelligence predicted the Soviet Union would have achieved the nuclear capability to wage a successful war."

"[I]n the United Kingdom the modern intelligence establishment can trace its roots to 1909. As an academic discipline, the subject really only extends to the mid-1970s.... The key events of the early 21st century have already defined intelligence as a new cornerstone of government.... One consequence of this has been the large-scale growth of intelligence study and teaching academically.... Yet a review of teaching practices in the United Kingdom today suggests that intelligence studies is one of those odd disciplines that is comfortable in a variety of academic departments, but perhaps never truly at home in any of them."

"[T]he new technology of the post-Cold War world has suddenly transformed the West's leading spymasters into sinister shadows manipulating a massive surveillance system that can capture and study every telephone call, fax and e-mail message sent anywhere in the world.

"These high-tech espionage agents from Canada, the United States, Britain, Australia and New Zealand -- backed up by a web of ships, planes and radar and communication interception sites that ring the earth -- have established the greatest spy network in history. Its name is Echelon....

"On [22 February 2000] , the European Union's parliament will open a major international debate on the spy practices of the world's five leading English-speaking nations, claiming that this electronic espionage ring ... is methodically going where it has no right to go. The EU's civil liberties committee is expected to accuse Britain of aiding the United States in conducting economic and commercial espionage on a grand scale at the expense of its European partners. A special 112-page expose of the spy network prepared for the EU last spring [by Duncan Campbell, a Scottish physicist and researcher] declares that the rapid proliferation of surveillance technologies presents 'a serious threat to the civil liberties in Europe' with 'awesome implications.'"
