The third edition of Introduction to Intelligence Studies provides a comprehensive overview of the United States intelligence community, including its history, organization, and functions. Since the 9/11 attacks, the US intelligence community (IC) has undergone significant changes, and this textbook offers a comprehensive exploration of intelligence and security issues.

The book is designed in a practical sequence, beginning with the basics of intelligence and progressing through its history, best practices, and the current state of the intelligence community. The authors examine the pillars of the American intelligence system, including collection, analysis, counterintelligence, and covert operations, and demonstrate how they work together to provide decision advantage. Equal coverage is given to the functions of the intelligence world, including intelligence collection, counterintelligence, information management, critical thinking, and decision-making.

The book also addresses vital issues such as laws and ethics, writing and briefing for the intelligence community, and the emerging threats and challenges that intelligence professionals will face in the future. This revised and updated third edition takes into account recent developments, including the growing influence of Russia and China, the recent history of the Trump and Biden administrations and the IC, and the increasing importance of the cyber world in the intelligence enterprise.

Introduction to Intelligence Studies is an essential resource for students of intelligence studies, US national security, foreign policy, and International Relations in general. It provides a thorough understanding of the intelligence community and its role in shaping national security policy.
