Description:
What is
the purpose of an intelligence organisation? The short answer is to transform
disparate and ambiguous information into a product that clarifies national
security decision-making. Ideally, that process ought to be politically neutral
and detached from the policy objectives of the government it serves. But what
happens when intelligence ceases to be impartial and is used as a political
means to support a policy preference? More significantly, what happens when
intelligence is distorted, twisted or manipulated to achieve this aim?
Spinning the Secrets of State addresses these
questions by investigating historical case studies developed from assiduous
research into previously classified archival documents, political papers,
private correspondence and diaries to show how the secrets of state can be spun
into a potent political weapon.
In this
revealing tour Justin T. McPhee considers the evolution of intelligence
politicisation in Australia from before Federation in 1901 through to the
modern era, providing a deep historical context in which to understand the
convergence of intelligence and politics. Containing much new information, Spinning
the Secrets of State offers an illuminating account of the secret inner
workings of intelligence manipulation and the conditions that enable
politicisation to arise.
An
essential read for both the general observer and scholars interested in
understanding why intelligence and politics seem fated to collide.

Soft, lightweight golf shirt
Color: Turquoise, Size: Medium
I got this for my husband who occasionally golfs with work buddies as of recently. This golf shirt was perfect for him because it’s soft and the thinness helps with sweat and keeping it cool which is necessary where we live.
The color is great and matches with most of his other shirts. It feels like a nice quality shirt while also being very lightweight. I’m sure if he was into wearing polos regularly, he would probably were it all the time.
The size we got fit great and washing it was easy.
Overall this is a great lightweight polo for being active.

It's more than golf shirt.
Color: Grey, Size: Large
This shirt is great for summer, beach, casual wear and outdoor activities. It's cool to touch and dry quick. The only thing you should be aware is that if you are on the plus size, the shirt does stick to your body sometimes and it does not compliment your body type well.
