About Chinese Communist Espionage: An Intelligence Primer
Product Description This is the first book of its kind to employ hundreds of Chinese sources to explain the history and current state of Chinese Communist intelligence operations. It profiles the leaders, top spies, and important operations in the history of China's espionage organs, and links to an extensive online glossary of Chinese language intelligence and security terms. Peter Mattis and Matthew Brazil present an unprecedented look into the murky world of Chinese espionage both past and present, enabling a better understanding of how pervasive and important its influence is, both in China and abroad. Review "Mr. Mattis and Mr. Brazil deliver a detailed history and current assessment of Chinese espionage activities. Their encyclopedic review of key Chinese intelligence officers and their spying operations dating back to the 1949 Communist takeover highlights how the United States and other major trading partners are under siege from a pernicious, multifaceted attack on government, commercial and academic targets." --The Washington Times "A sophisticated analysis of China's competent and effective intelligence capabilities within diplomatic, military, economic and technological contexts." --East West Notes " Chinese Communist Espionage is recommended reading for those interested in the craft of intelligence, and perhaps even more so for American intelligence mavens and policymakers, not to mention the ordinary citizen." --StrategyPage " Chinese Communist Espionage is required reading for anyone wanting a thorough, documented introduction into the world of communist Chinese espionage and tradecraft. And how it impacts America and the world." --American Defense News " Chinese Communist Espionage: An Intelligence Primer by Peter Mattis and Dr. Matthew Brazil has coincided with fast-breaking stories about Chinese espionage and influence operations, both in mainland China and beyond." --NTD "Mr Mattis and Mr Brazil provide a useful field guide to Chinese intelligence services." --The Economist "Messrs. Mattis and Brazil's book is the most comprehensive attempt yet to outline the range of China's spying and the complicated web of agencies that carry it out. The scale of China's relentless espionage activities is far more understandable thanks to their work. Readers may be surprised, for example, to find out that some of the earliest American Cold War spies gave their loyalty to Beijing, not Moscow, prompting one to wonder: Does China today have its own Kim Philby? The ignominious list of Americans, both of Chinese descent and otherwise, who have sold national or corporate secrets to China, or attempted to do so, is enough to raise questions about how much of China's military and economic rise could have been achieved without espionage." --The Wall Street Journal " Chinese Communist Espionage is an excellent resource for scholars, practitioners of intelligence and foreign policy, and businesspersons interested in China and its intelligence services. The book not only is valuable for China watches but also is relevant to a variety of subjects…. The sheer amount of information gathered from both Chinese and English sources, as well as from the anonymous testimonies of knowledgeable insiders, combined with a rigorous and thoughtful analysis of the facts by authors with deep knowledge of the subject, make the book exceptionally valuable." --Comparative Strategy "The first book of its kind to employ hundreds of Chinese sources to explain the history and current state of Chinese Communist intelligence operations, Chinese Communist Espionage: An Intelligence Primer profiles the leaders, top spies and important operations, and links to an extensive online glossary of Chinese-language intelligence and security terms." --The Foreign Service Journal " Chinese Communist Espionage … serves as an introduction to [Chinese intelligence operations]. The authors include notes and a bibliography reflecting their extensive research. T
