Secret Agent Authors: Robert Wallace's 'Spycraft'
THE FORMER DIRECTOR of the CIA's tech office, Robert Wallace, has written a book called "Spycraft" about the tools spies use to do their jobs, the gadgets and techniques they depend on from day to day.
It's definitely cool to read about spy secrets, but aren't these things secret for a reason? Have we just given up all our intelligence-gathering secrets so some guy could get a book deal?
Anyway, you can go ask him and see him speak (along with his co-author, intelligence historian Keith Melton) at the National Archives this afternoon. Maybe you'll decide it was worth the potential intelligence breach.
