Summary

"This book comprises 16 articles written by leading figures in the field who are convinced that intelligence has an important part to play in times of peace and diplomacy as well as in times of war and conflict. The book is the first in the 'Reuven Shiloah Series for Intelligence and Security', named after the first head of Israel's 'Mossad' intelligence service, and is published in collaboration with the Israeli Center for Special Studies (CSS)." "The articles in this collection contain analyses and descriptions of events - some here made public for the first time - concerning attempts to make use of the advantages of intelligence communications and contacts to further diplomatic efforts in the Middle East." "Intelligence for Peace sheds light on an issue that is of major importance to governments, policy-makers, intelligence organisations and the public. The book will be of interest to all those actively engaged in the field as well to those generally interested in intelligence and the shifting diplomatic conditions in the international arena."--Jacket.
