"Years ago, as a Senate investigator of intelligence, I met with Clair George, a famous (later infamous) CIA station chief. He was emphatic that what he produced were spies! I was impressed but later realized that spies were only an input. Intelligence is really about producing important insights for policymakers. And that is the work of analysts, as this volume describes so richly."—Gregory Treverton, former chairman, National Intelligence Council, professor of Practice of International Relations and Spatial Sciences, University of Southern California
"The CIA Intelligence Analyst is the most comprehensive and informative book concerning the production of intelligence analysis by the CIA yet published. The focus of the book is on the CIAs daily analytic work, and the excellent chapters in the volume are written by veteran CIA analysts. The book will be of great value to scholars and practitioners as well as to students who are considering or planning to go into intelligence analysis as a career, and I highly recommend the book."—Dan Cladwell, distinguished professor emeritus, Pepperdine University
"Insightful, exhaustive, and important. An authoritative deep dive into the underappreciated and critical role of CIA analysts and their tradecraft, challenges, and impact on policymaking."—Amy Zegart, Hoover Institution Senior Fellow, professor of political science by courtesy, Stanford University
