- Communitivity 7y agoI also recommend the book "The Company", by Bob Littell. Overall it's fiction, but has the feel of realism.

- _iyig 7y agoCame here to post this. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. For one thing, the quality of the author’s research speaks for itself: “The book is based on more than 50,000 documents, primarily from the archives of the CIA, and hundreds of interviews with CIA veterans, including ten Directors of Central Intelligence.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legacy_of_Ashes_(book) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legacy_of_Ashes_(book)

- lioeters 7y agoThe author's name looked familiar - then I found that this year he published a book titled _Poisoner in Chief: Sidney Gottlieb and the CIA Search for Mind Control_. Looking forward to reading that soon, and will search for your recommendation too.
