Book excerpt: This manual presents guidelines for organizing and operating an effective police intelligence unit. Emphasis is placed on the problems involved in combating organized crime, which includes much that is now being called 'white-collar' crime. It attempts to define the concept of intelligence and its role in the criminal justice system while at the same time providing a practical handbook for the law enforcement intelligence unit. In particular, the intent is to assist intelligence units, large or small, in their efforts against major crime in their jurisdiction, whatever its form. An introductory chapter outlines briefly the history and growth of organized crime in the United States as well as the infiltration of organized criminal elements into legitimate business and government, the social and economic impacts of this crime, and its implications for the criminal justice system. It defines the meaning of 'intelligence' as it applies to law enforcement agencies as a tool for fighting organized and white-collar crime. Finally, it discusses the growing public concern over the right-to-privacy issue and its legal implications for law enforcement intelligence units. Each subsequent chapter deals with a specific element of the intelligence function. An outline of the various sources and methods for gathering the kinds of information necessary to produce sound intelligence is followed by a discussion of the organization of the filing system for storing, protecting, and disseminating intelligence information. A fourth chapter provides techniques for developing hypotheses from raw intelligence data to produce and disseminate intelligence for strategic and tactical operations. Also considered are the staffing and training of the intelligence unit and its overall organization and management. Extensive appendices supplement the manual where more detailed discussions in particular aspects of the intelligence function are required.

Book excerpt: What does the place of information within the cosmos have to do with the life of any one person or with the nature of right and wrong? It changes everything. Information can be viewed as nothing more than an ephemeral artefact of matter, energy, space and time. Or it can be viewed as a component of the universe every bit as real and consequential as the others. This book shows not only that information is real in its own right, but that the intelligence found in people would not have come into existence if it were not. The most powerful tool and weapon of humans is the information system their minds together comprise. Individuals in all their variety are the way they are because that is the way that together they are most intelligent. From the evolutionary mechanism which generated human intelligence to the affairs of people today, the driving force has always been the role of information in individual lives. The result of their decisions through the distant past has been a kind of intelligence new in the universe. People together form a functional mental system that is of a higher order of complexity and intelligence than any individual mind could be. Individual minds are designed not to survive alone in a wilderness, but to complement the human information system as a whole. To make the system function, human intelligence and morality necessarily evolved together. People can think together only if they get along. The basic outlines of morality are as fixed and timeless and as rooted in human evolution as the intelligence it evolved with. Each is both cause and product of the other. The intelligence of the human information system as a whole is the central principle of human life. Acknowledging the reality of information changes forever the divide between secular and religious outlooks. Religions envision the information world by belief in an invisible network of connections between people and the world around them. But these connections exist in hard reality because the existence of information is just as real and provable as the existence of rocks. Dividing reality, by believing that physical things are real and information is not, trivialises the most important aspect of human existence. Once the illusion that information is not real is given up, the basic relationships of life re-assume the kinds of firm definitions that they have always been given by religions. To live in harmony with the reality of information, each person must find a way to recognise that their own thoughts and feelings, which consist of information, are just as real as any objects they think about. This has always been the essential doorway to reality, opening to a world of enormous intelligence, love and beauty. Reasons to care about other people appear clearly and simply as features of the way things are, endowing every life with a sense of purpose as an indispensable element of the human information system. Together, humans exist to wonder and speculate, create and explore, seek truth and solve the riddles of the universe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silent Warfare Has Its Origin In A Course On Intelligence That Mr. Shulsky Taught In 1985 As A Visiting Professor At The University Of Chicago S John M. Olin Center For Inquiry Into The Theory And Practice Of Democracy. The Book Was Never Intended To Be An Account Of A Particular Country S Intelligence Activities In A Particular Period In History. While Many Of The Examples Found In The Book Are Drawn From The British And American Intelligence Experiences, They Are Generally Employed To Make Broader Points About Basic Concepts And Issues Involved In The Practice Of Intelligence. The Passing Of The Cold War, The Emergence Of A New Strategic Era, And The Rise Of The Information Age Will, Of Course, Change Intelligence Practices And Requirements To Some Degree. However, A Key Thesis Of The Book Is That Intelligence Is Inherently Connected To The Competition Among Nations And That Absent Something Akin To Kant S State Of Perpetual Peace, Intelligence Will, Like Diplomacy And Military Force, Remain A Regular Tool Of Statecraft. Accordingly, There Still Is A Need For The Citizen And Serious Student Alike To Understand The Basic Elements Of Intelligence As Well As New Developments In The Craft Of Intelligence, Their Interactions, And The Tensions And Relationships Between These Secret Activities And The Democratic Government And Society They Are Intended To Serve.

Download or read book Thinking and Writing written by Robert Sinclair and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-04-28 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes some of the powerful metaphors that have developed over the past two decades about the workings of our minds including cognitive science (which embraces several disciplines, notably computer science, linguistics, neurophysiology and psychology), in an attempt to apply those metaphors to the workings of the CIA's Directorate of Intelligence. These findings have obvious implications for the way the directorate recruits and trains its people. The term "cognitive science" embraces several disciplines, notably computer science, linguistics, and neurophysiology, as well as psychology. A cognitive scientist seeks to understand what the mind does when it searches for patterns, when it makes a value judgment, when it must choose between pattern-finding and judgment-making, when it engages in the myriad other activities that occupy it. Some fragmentary answers to questions such as this have become possible in the last 20 years. Before they are six years old, nearly all humans learn to generalize, to impute continuity, to discern relationships, and to determine cause-and-effect. Moreover, we can store the conclusions drawn from such processes in a way that gives us access to them without burdening our working memory. We also learn a language, that uniquely human capacity which sits at the center of conscious cognitive activity. Language opens the way to abstraction and generalization, and permits each normal human to develop a rich network of concepts. All of us are aware of the limitations of these processes. For example, we all are obtuse in dealing with logic and probability; we are comfortable with imprecision; and our minds are conservative in their approach to new information-quicker to recognize the familiar than the unfamiliar, reluctant to change concepts once we have accepted them. Finally, there are innumerable processes that influence our mental activity but are not accessible to the conscious part of the mind. FROM THE AUTHOR: The monograph has two parts: first, a survey of cognitive science as we understood it in 1984; second, suggestions for changing the way we do intelligence analysis in light of what the discipline was telling us. As I have indicated, I think the survey section holds up pretty well. While I would like to think the reader will learn something useful from immersion in all the detail (notably the diagram on page 10, which makes graphic the many elements that interactively shape our conscious mental activity), the basic concept is quite simple. The conscious mind cannot track more than about seven cognitive elements at the same time (cognitive science jargon often refers to these elements as chunks); and to cope with this constraint, our brains constantly manipulate those elements, always at top speed and usually outside our conscious awareness. This is revised edition of a manuscript that was originally published in 1984.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This English edition monograph is developed and updated from China's best-selling, and award-winning, book on Artificial Intelligence (AI). It covers the foundations as well as the latest developments of AI in a comprehensive and systematic manner. It is a valuable guide for students and researchers on artificial intelligence.A wide range of topics in AI are covered in this book with four distinct features. First of all, the book comprises a comprehensive system, covering the core technology of AI, including the basic theories and techniques of 'traditional' artificial intelligence, and the basic principles and methods of computational intelligence. Secondly, the book focuses on innovation, covering advanced learning methods for machine learning and deep learning techniques and other artificial intelligence that have been widely used in recent years. Thirdly, the theory and practice of the book are highly integrated. There are theories, techniques and methods, as well as many application examples, which will help readers to understand the artificial intelligence theory and its application development. Fourthly, the content structure of the book is quite characteristic, consisting of three parts: (i) knowledge-based artificial intelligence, (ii) data-based artificial intelligence, and (iii) artificial intelligence applications.It is closely related to the core elements of artificial intelligence, namely knowledge, data, algorithms, and computing powers. This reflects the authors' deep understanding of the artificial intelligence discipline.
