Details: Intelligence analysis is no easy matter. Deducing the most complex situations into one which is easy to decipher and from which an inference can be generated is the work of geniuses. Challenges In Intelligence Analysis: Lessons From 1300 BCE To The Present by Timothy Walton dwells on various events in the history of mankind and how they could have been handled in a more probable manner.
With a brief introduction on intelligence analysis and its uses, Walton dives head on into the centre of past events such as the Korean War, the Cuban Missile crisis, 9/11 and Iraq. This book analyses the process with which these historical operations were carried out, what were the problems and what were the points to be taken away from them. It throws light on the political, social and economic issues and how they could have been made more significant in the functioning of the world.
For those who want to make a career in intelligence analysis, Challenges In Intelligence Analysis: Lessons From 1300 BCE To The Present is an essential guide.

This book leaves no stone unturned and can be coined as the History of the World as we know it.
