Inside the Middle East Crisis with the Man Who Led Mossad
by Efraim Halevy
Israel's Mossad is thought by many to be one of the most powerful intelligence agencies in the world. In Man in the Shadows, Efraim Halevya Mossad officer since 1961 and its chief between 1998 and 2002provides an unprecedented portrait of the Middle East crisis.
"Halevy delivers insightful and often acerbic portraits of world leaders and shows a surprising sympathy toward the Arab point of view. He also describes several operational fiascoes that made the news, but he writes as a loyal Israeli bureaucrat, so secrets stay put." - PW
