Christensen, Cryptologia 32.2 (Apr. 2008), has a problem with the title of this work, as "[o]nly one of the eight chapters actually focuses on the codebreakers at Bletchley Park. There is a badly done introductory chapter about cryptology" (it is described elsewhere in the review as "riddled with inaccuracies"), with the remaining chapters covering other aspects of signals intelligence in World War II. Quoted material makes up a substantial part of the book, but the method of reference is "[e]specially frustrating." There are better books on the subject.

"[T]he biggest political and military concern in Africa is terrorism.... [D]ire conditions -- border disputes, ethnic conflicts, corruption and mismanagement, famine, HIV -- make Africa a fertile breeding ground for Muslim extremism and terrorist recruitment."
Side note: "The Navy and Marine Corps established its presence in Africa with a base at Camp Lemonier, Djibouti."

"Security experts in Germany have uncovered new evidence of a big American industrial espionage operation in Europe using satellite listening posts in Britain and Germany.... The main centres used for satellite tapping of millions of confidential company telephone calls, fax and e-mail messages are believed to be terrestrial listening posts run by the American National Security Agency (NSA) at Menwith Hill, near Harrogate, North Yorkshire, and Bad Aibling, Bavaria."
