The Mossad

Exposing secrets is a spy’s job, and the agents of Israel’s Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations (Mossad) are some of the world’s best. Cloaked in secrecy, the Mossad gathers foreign intelligence and performs covert special operations for the purpose of counterterrorism and state security. This in-depth title for readers age 12 and up surveys the espionage agency’s history from the early 1950s to today. It covers training and the skills necessary to assess risks and thwart attacks. It also examines key missions and compares pop culture spies with their real-life counterparts. Includes a glossary, sidebars, index, and further resources.
