Publisher's Synopsis
Even now, long after the supposed end of the Cold War, previously unknown operations and new names continue to surface. This new edition of the Encyclopedia of Cold War Espionage, Spies and Secret Operations contains updated information on Cold War spying. Out of the 350 A-Z main entries, over 30 of them are new, including biographical sketches and an updated bibliography. In support of the entries the book includes useful tools, such as a complete chronology of significant espionage activities, a glossary of key terms and individuals, references to other sources, either in print or electronic formats and a full index. This edition covers the latest Russian deep cover spy cases of 2010 which shocked the world, where Federal agents arrested 10 alleged members of a"long-term, deep-cover" Russian spy ring whose ultimate goal was to infiltrate U.S. policy-making circles.
