Spying-Who's doing it, who's it being done to, and how are they doing it? This book by Ron Fridell may possibly tell you everything you want to know about professional spying. In fascinating facts and anecdotes, we learn about the secret activities of the FBI, CIA, and NSA. Fridell tells us who these government agencies are watching, how they gather intelligence, and the successes and failures these agencies admit to. Modern day espionage developed into a full-fledged industry in the Cold War and continues today with incredible technology to combat terrorism, organized crime, and environmental degradation. In Spying: The Modern World of Espionage, Fridell tells us all he knows and all he could find out about the real world of spies and spying.

This book was very informative, it gave all the information I needed for my research on foreign policy about satellites. It also gave information on just about everything in spying. It talked about the first spies, and their devices they used (robofly). It also talked about some of the most famous spies like James Ames, and what they did to become known for what they did. And the author talks about how spying can be a very useful tool to keep peace in the world, and how it will keep foreign affairs nice and tidy, although personally I feel spying just shows that you don't trust the person / people that you're spying on. Overall I think it was a greatly written, very informative selection.
