An unprecedented history of the CIA's secret and amazing gadgetry behind the art of espionage In this look at the CIA’s most secretive operations and the devices that made them possible, Spycraft tells gripping life-and-death stories about a group of spytechs—much of it never previously revealed and with images never before seen by the public. The CIA’s Office of Technical Service is the ultrasecret department that grappled with challenges such as: What does it take to build a quiet helicopter? How does one embed a listening device in a cat? What is an invisible photo used for? These amazingly inventive devices were created and employed against a backdrop of geopolitical tensions—including the Cold War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and continuing terrorist threats. Written by Robert Wallace, the former director of the Office of Technical Service, and internationally renowned intelligence historian Keith Melton, Spycraft is both a fantastic encyclopedia of gadgetry and a revealing primer on the fundamentals of high-tech espionage. “The first comprehensive look at the technical achievements of American espionage from the 1940s to the present.”—Wired “Reveals more concrete information about CIA tradecraft than any book.”—The Washington Times “This is a story I thought could never be told.”—JAMES M. OLSON, former chief of CIA counterintelligence

Os dois exemplares da versão Comodoro cupê em destaque na capa desta edição de Opala & Cia, além de se diferenciarem nos detalhes de estilo e radicalmente no visual, também testemunham duas fases distintas na trajetória do charmoso cupê da linha Opala. Enquanto o Comodoro 1975, uma raridade em perfeito estado original, é um legítimo representante da fase de ouro desta versão no mercado brasileiro, o modelo personalizado, fabricado em 1988, marca a última série de produção deste cupê. De versão preferida pelos consumidores nos anos setenta, o Opala cupê acabou ficando esquecido na segunda metade dos anos oitenta, o que provocou, inclusive, a desativação de sua produção em 1988. Este fato curioso marca também duas épocas distintas no desenvolvimento do mercado brasileiro, no qual durante cerca de duas décadas os modelos de duas portas tiveram a preferência dos consumidores, contrariamente ao que sempre foi comum no resto do mundo. No caso do Opala, esta preferência era equilibrada pelo fato da versão de quatro portas ser comumente utilizada por executivos de empresas, frotistas e também como táxi. Mesmo assim, durante a década de 1970 e começo dos anos oitenta, o cupê tinha a preferência do comprador particular, algo que também se comprovava na hora da revenda, quando um cupê usado valia bem mais do que um quatro portas do mesmo ano. Isso só começou a mudar em meados da década de 1980, quando o mercado brasileiro passou a se comportar como o resto do mundo. Vale destacar que, na mesma ocasião, o Diplomata de quatro portas se tornou basicamente o único modelo de prestígio em nosso mercado. Tudo isso se refletiu rapidamente em acentuada queda nas vendas do cupê, o que acabou provocando o fim de sua produção, para tristeza de seus fãs. Ainda nesta edição, mostramos também a curta trajetória do Chevette Junior no mercado brasileiro e, acreditem, um Maverick. Isso mesmo! Um Ford Maverick, porém, repotenciado com o “seis canecos” de Opala. Santa heresia! Outro destaque é a jovem estudante de engenharia mecânica que conta sua paixão pela linha Chevrolet em Meu Opala. Por fim, também detalhamos todo o histórico das características faixas da versão SS e mostramos como restaurar corretamente esta versão esportiva.

Magic or spycraft? In 1953, against the backdrop of the Cold War, the CIA initiated a top-secret program, code-named MKULTRA, to counter Soviet mind-control and interrogation techniques. Realizing that clandestine officers might need to covertly deploy newly developed pills, potions, and powders against the adversary, the CIA hired America's most famous magician, John Mulholland, to write two manuals on sleight of hand and covert communication techniques. In 1973, virtually all documents related to MKULTRA were destroyed. Mulholland's manuals were thought to be among them—until a single surviving copy of each, complete with illustrations, was recently discovered in the agency's archives. The manuals reprinted in this work represent the only known complete copy of Mulholland's instructions for CIA officers on the magician's art of deception and secret communications.

Synthesizes the empirical literature on organizationalstructuring to answer the question of how organizations structure themselves --how they resolve needed coordination and division of labor. Organizationalstructuring is defined as the sum total of the ways in which an organizationdivides and coordinates its labor into distinct tasks. Further analysis of theresearch literature is neededin order to builda conceptualframework that will fill in the significant gap left by not connecting adescription of structure to its context: how an organization actuallyfunctions. The results of the synthesis are five basic configurations (the SimpleStructure, the Machine Bureaucracy, the Professional Bureaucracy, theDivisionalized Form, and the Adhocracy) that serve as the fundamental elementsof structure in an organization. Five basic parts of the contemporaryorganization (the operating core, the strategic apex, the middle line, thetechnostructure, and the support staff), and five theories of how it functions(i.e., as a system characterized by formal authority, regulated flows, informalcommunication, work constellations, and ad hoc decision processes) aretheorized. Organizations function in complex and varying ways, due to differing flows -including flows of authority, work material, information, and decisionprocesses. These flows depend on the age, size, and environment of theorganization; additionally, technology plays a key role because of itsimportance in structuring the operating core. Finally, design parameters aredescribed - based on the above five basic parts and five theories - that areused as a means of coordination and division of labor in designingorganizational structures, in order to establish stable patterns of behavior.(CJC).

It is still easy to underestimate how much the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War?--and then the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001?--transformed the task of American foreign and defense policymaking. In place of predictability (if a sometimes terrifying predictability), the world is now very unpredictable. In place of a single overriding threat and benchmark by which all else could be measured, a number of possible threats have arisen, not all of them states. In place of force-on-force engagements, U.S. defense planners have to assume "asymmetric" threats?--ways not to defeat U.S. power but to render it irrelevant. This book frames the challenges for defense policy that the transformed world engenders, and it sketches new tools for dealing with those challenges?--from new techniques in modeling and gaming, to planning based on capabilities rather than threats, to personnel planning and making use of "best practices" from the private sector.
