5.0 out of 5 stars Relevant - methods disclosed being used today, August 15, 2006
By 
This review is from: K. G. B. Today (Hardcover)
When I first read this book, the Soviet Union was still a major threat. Today, the KGB no longer exists in the same form, with the same threat as described in this well written book. Tyranny, however, is still a serious threat and the methods used by the KGB: deception, "useful idiots", embedded agents who hid as normal citizens until needed - all of these are used by Islamic Fascists. Americans would be well served to read this book with an eye on the terrorists from Iran, Syria, and tribes waging war from myriad other Muslim countries.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great KGB defector stories, June 15, 2000
By 
Jeff P (Riverside Ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: K. G. B. Today (Hardcover)
Great insights on the KGB structure with interviews of 3 defectors, Major Stanislav Aleksandrovich Levchenko who escaped in a MiG, Colonel Rudolf Herrmann, and Canadian Professor Hugh George Hambleton. It was amazing to learn that there are 400,000 KGB agents and that the KGB spends so much money stealing information instead of developing it themselves. I plan on reading 4 of his other books that all got 5 stars.
