How Spies Think: Ten Lessons in Intelligence by David Omand

Learn the methodology used by British intelligence agencies to reach judgements, establish confidence and act decisively. Intelligence officers gather information, often contradictory or incomplete, and build the most accurate possible image of the world. This book shows how to apply the same frameworks to everyday life, making decisions about the world and your place in it.

With revealing examples from the author's storied career, including key briefings with Prime Ministers and conflicts from the Falklands to Afghanistan, How Spies Think provides the tools to sort fact from fiction and use real intelligence every day.
