1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste money on the 21st Century CIA "complete" guide, November 6, 2001
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 21st Century Complete Guide to the CIA and NSA : History, Operations, Reports, Including Central Intelligence Agency and National Security Agency ... Cryptology, Defense, and History Documents (CD-ROM)
What the Amazon description fails to mention is that this CD is simply a compilation of pages copied off the CIA and NSA's own web sites and saved as PDF files.

You can get everything on the CD and more for free directly from the respective government websites. In addition, the graphics as saved on the CD are low resolution, causing some small items to become nearly impossible to read.

Don't waste [X amount] on this ripoff just go directly to the CIA's website

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic source of CIA information - well organized, November 21, 2001

This review is from: 21st Century Complete Guide to the CIA and NSA : History, Operations, Reports, Including Central Intelligence Agency and National Security Agency ... Cryptology, Defense, and History Documents (CD-ROM)
I am extremely impressed by this great CD-ROM collection of CIA and NSA documents. It is well organized and provides literally thousands of pages of reports and documents that I'd never have the time to get otherwise. The parts dealing with the history of the Cold War and the Soviet Union are especially fascinating. The publisher deserves credit for providing a very useful product that is sure to delight anyone interested in intelligence operations, history, or military affairs. The PDF format is ideal for reading at the computer or printing out interesting bits for reference. I highly recommend it!
