商品描述
There are a limited number of intelligence analysis books available on the market. Intelligence Analysis Fundamentals is an introductory, accessible text for college level undergraduate and graduate level courses. While the principles outlined in the book largely follow military intelligence terminology and practice, concepts are presented to correlate with intelligence gathering and analysis performed in law enforcement, homeland security, and corporate and business security roles. Most of the existing texts on intelligence gathering and analysis focus on specific types of intelligence such as 'target centric' intelligence, and many of these, detail information from a position of prior knowledge. In other words, they are most valuable to the consumer who has a working-level knowledge of the subject.
The book is general enough in nature that a lay student-interested in pursuing a career in intelligence, Homeland Security, or other related areas of law enforcement-will benefit from it. No prior knowledge of intelligence analysis, functions, or operations is assumed. Chapters illustrate methods and techniques that, over the years, have consistently demonstrate results, superior to those achieved with other means. Chapters describe such analytical methods that are most widely used in the intelligence community and serve as recognized standards and benchmarks in the practice of intelligence analysis. All techniques have been selected for inclusion for their specific application to homeland security, criminal investigations, and intelligence operations.
- Uses numerous hands-on activities-that can easily be modified by instructors to be more or less challenging depending on the course level-to reinforce concepts
- As current and active members of the intelligence community, the authors draw on their decades of experience in intelligence to offer real-world examples to illustrate concepts
- All methodologies reflect the latest trends in the intelligence communities assessment, analysis, and reporting processes with all presented being open source, non-classified information
- As such, the non-sensitive information presented is appropriate-and methods applicable-for use for education and training overseas and internationally
- Military-style collection and analysis methods are the primary ones presented, but all are directly correlated intelligence to current concepts, functions and practices within Homeland Security and the law communities
- Covers the counterterrorism environment where joint operations and investigative efforts combine military, private sector, and law enforcement action and information sharing
The book will be a welcome addition to the body of literature available and a widely used reference for professionals and students alike.

市場上可用的情報分析書籍數量有限。情報分析基礎 是一本適合大學本科生和研究生課程的入門性、易讀的教材。雖然本書中概述的原則主要遵循軍事情報術語和實踐,但所呈現的概念與執法、國土安全以及企業和商業安全角色中進行的情報收集和分析相互關聯。現有的大多數情報收集和分析書籍專注於特定類型的情報,例如「以目標為中心」的情報,並且許多書籍是從先前知識的角度詳細說明信息。換句話說,這些書籍對於對該主題有工作層面知識的讀者最有價值。
本書的內容足夠一般,對於有意從事情報、國土安全或其他相關執法領域的普通學生將會有所幫助。假設讀者對情報分析、功能或操作沒有任何先前知識。各章節展示了多年來持續顯示出優於其他方法的結果的方法和技術。各章節描述了在情報界中最廣泛使用的分析方法,並作為情報分析實踐中的公認標準和基準。所有技術的選擇都是基於其在國土安全、刑事調查和情報操作中的具體應用。
- 使用大量的實作活動,這些活動可以由講師根據課程水平輕鬆調整為更具挑戰性或較少挑戰性,以加強概念。
- 作為現役的情報界成員,作者利用其數十年的情報經驗提供現實世界的例子來說明概念。
- 所有方法論反映了情報界在評估、分析和報告過程中的最新趨勢,所有呈現的信息均為開源、非機密信息。
- 因此,所呈現的非敏感信息適合用於海外和國際的教育和培訓,且方法可適用。
- 本書主要介紹軍事風格的收集和分析方法,但所有方法都與國土安全和執法界的當前概念、功能和實踐直接相關。
