A classic of American intelligence nonfiction, Dr. David Wise, has been working for almost ten years on a book devoted to a topic little known even in America, let alone in other countries: the activities of the intelligence services of the People's Republic of China in the United States. Written in typical Wise style , filled with interesting facts presented in a simple and understandable manner, the book rightfully became a bestseller in 2011 in the USA. It can be assumed that the information contained in it will be of interest to our reader, and probably not only theoretical. Just the massive use by Chinese intelligence of compatriots abroad, the so-called. “overseas Chinese” or “huaqiao”, as well as the great progress achieved by the PRC intelligence services in the field of computer espionage, will certainly give pause to those who are supposed to think about this as part of their duty.
