John. "Campuses Were Fertile Ground for Recruiters." Times
(London), 20 Sep. 1999. [http://www.the-times.co.uk]
"Communist intelligence services saw British universities as among their most fertile recruiting grounds.... A combination of idealism and intelligence made both students and academics obvious targets for spymasters. Opportunity was the crucial third ingredient, the international nature of higher education making it easy for contacts to be made and political allegiances to be established without arousing suspicion."

Olive, Ronald J.
1. Capturing Jonathan Pollard: How One of the Most Notorious Spies in American History Was Brought to Justice. Annapolis, MD: Naval Institute Press, 2006.
The author is a retired special agent of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS).
Allen, Proceedings (Dec. 2006), says that the author's "narrative often has the momentum of a spy thriller." Olive is convinced that Pollard showed that he was a security risk early in his career with the Naval Investigative Service (NIS -- now NCIS) and should have been let go years before he was caught as a spy.
For Brooks, NIPQ 23.1 (Jan. 2007), this "is a well-written, fast-paced story [that] reads like a novel." The author "was intimately involved in the investigation and has seen much, if not all, of the classified information associated with the case."
Peake, Studies 51.1 (Mar. 2007), finds this "a well-documented, first-hand account of a benchmark espionage case." The author "spends the bulk of the narrative on how Pollard came under suspicion and how he got caught."
To Goulden, Intelligencer 15.2 (Fall/Winter 2006-2007) and Washington Times, 24 Dec. 2006, this book "towers over the pack" of the books on the Pollard case.
2. "A Spy Left Out in the Cold." U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings 132, no. 11 (Nov. 2006): 62-63.
Here, Olive tells of Pollard's initial meeting with Israeli intelligence officer Aviem Sella, where a communications plan based on pay phones was worked out.

Oliver, David. Airborne Espionage: International Special Duties Operations in the World Wars. Gloucestershire, UK: Sutton Publishing, 2005.
Peake, Studies 49.3 (2005), finds that the author covers special-mission flying in World War I, between the wars, and in "the glory days of what the Allies called Special Duty (SD) Squadrons," World War II. In addition, Oliver "includes many of the Nazi and Japanese operations against the Allies and also describes their aircraft."

Olson, James M. Fair Play: The Moral Dilemmas of Spying. Washington, DC: Potomac, 2006.
Robarge, Studies 51.1 (Mar. 2007), notes that the author investigates the issue of ethics in intelligence "in a novel and thought-provoking way. He has created 50 fictional scenarios" and asked a 66-person "focus group" (whether some or all for any one scenario is not clear) whether "they consider the specified course of action morally acceptable or morally unacceptable." Many of the pro and con arguments are "insightful and at times provocative." Olson argues that intelligence "needs clear rules of engagement that emerge from open and informed discussion of what constitutes tolerable behavior."
For Peake, Intelligencer 15.2 (Fall/Winter 2006-2007), the author "has given the literature of intelligence one of its most interesting, unusual and forthright books.... It should be mandatory reading for all."
Prout, DIJ 16.1 (2007), comments that while the author once headed CIA counterintelligence, "his expertise extends to other aspects of intelligence as well. Here he examines virtually all aspects of human intelligence (HUMINT) operations." The reviewer is bothered that Olson dismisses U.S. intelligence collection prior to the formation of OSS. Nevertheless, Fair Play "is a must have for anyone who seeks to understand the world of espionage."
To Salvetti, CIRA Newsletter 32.2 (Summer 2007), "[r]eaders of this book will better understand what it means to be a CIA intelligence officer in the 21st century."
Nolte, AIJ 25.1 (Summer2007), finds that the heart of the book, "both from its academic value and its place as provocative and entertaining reading," is the 50 scenarios. They are "well chosen, realistic, and difficult."
