Paranoid yet?

Good little book I picked up on special ($5), covers the basic background and history of the CIA. Good info on "black ops" and mind control. See if you can leave the light on when you go to bed ;D

Worthwhile to Get and Keep

I purchased this book several years ago and just got around to reading it. It did not dissappoint me. It is a great summary of the CIA and all the scandalous activities it has been involved in. There are more books published that give more in depth information on each of the topics, but this one is a great overview of the entire thing. The really great thing is that it also has an index that is logically put together. I hate it when, while reading through a book, I am tempted to underscore or write in the margins so I can find the segment again because the topic is poorly indexed. I am very happy to have purchased this, and will not recirculate it into my library's annual book sale. THis is a keeper.

Interesting

The second book I've read that has started dispelling my perception of the CIA as a cloak and dagger "spies killing each other" organisation. I think I watched too many American movies. Definitely worth a read.
