Softcover. Condition: Near Fine. AUSTRALIAN MILITARY -Terrorist acts, most notably 9/11 and the Bali bombings, transformed our attitudes to the secretive world of intelligence, surveillance and security.In this book a prominent group of writers including Michael Mori, Ben Saul, Anne Aly and Peter Leahy lay bare the facts about spying and security in post-9/11 Australia.Their compelling book cuts through panic and fear-mongering to ask hard questions: Is ASIO unaccountable? Is the money we spend on security worth it? Is cyber-terrorism an urgent threat? Are our spies up to the job, and how do we know anyway as we only hear about their failures? Is WikiLeaks good for human rights? Are we trading our privacy for a false sense of security?ÂSpooked untangles the half-truths, conspiracy theories and controversies about the "war on terror", and is a welcome antidote to misinformation and alarm. xii, 323 pages ; 21 cm #101225 Australian Security Intelligence Organisation War on Terrorism, 2001-2009 Intelligence service -- Australia Secret service -- Australia National security -- Australia Espionage -- Australia Spies -- Australia Australian Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
