For those who may be interested in additional readings on the subject of intelligence, intelligence and foreign policy, and terrorism, I have compiled a recommended bibliography, which I have culled from hundreds of books in preparing my courses on intelligence. I have broken it down into categories that I hope are useful in selecting readings.
