Product Description This up-to-date and comprehensive electronic book on CD-ROM presents a collection of important documents and publications about the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). There is up-to-date coverage of major facets of the CIA: clandestine service, intelligence analysis, careers, human resources, mission support, news and information, public affairs, and science and technology. This CD-ROM uses next-generation search technology that allows complete indexing and makes all files on the disc fully searchable. Here is the full story of the newly released Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) "family jewels" papers featuring previously classified documents about questionable actions by the agency over the years: attempted assassination of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro, the involvement of the Mafia, the Watergate scandal during the Nixon Administration, domestic spying and wiretapping accusations, Project Mockingbird, and much more. In addition to complete coverage of the "family jewels" papers, this comprehensive CD-ROM has a full reproduction of another important set of previously classified documents released at the same time involving Cold War era hard target analysis of Soviet and Chinese policy (the CAESAR, ESAU, and POLO papers). The CIA'S Chief Historian noted upon release of the "family jewels" collection: "For more than 30 years, the Family Jewels have clouded the CIA's reputation, even though most of their contents have long been known from official reports and ad hoc disclosures. William Colby -- who oversaw the compilation of the Jewels while serving as the agency's operations chief and director-designate -- is the source of some durable misconceptions about them... The release of the Jewels should end much of the mythology about them. For starters, the compendium is not a 693-page catalogue of crime and immorality. Repetitive reports, duplicate documents, blank pages, file dividers, cover sheets, distribution lists and news clippings
