Surveillance Countermeasures: A Serious Guide to Detecting, Evading and Eluding Threats to Personal Privacy

To give you some idea of the content, for example, it suggests nipping into department stores with more than one entrance to shake off a stalker, and driving around a block in the car to expose any car following you. If that's the sort of thing you're looking for, it's a great book, if dry and hard to read.

excellent

interesting book old school stuff old spy craft type skills. Not that I would know other than others books as I can not even walk down the shop to buy a packet of mates with out standing out due to clumsy walking poor road crossing ablity and unnatural gate.

im not paranoid but i reckon its a subject should have a keen eye on, im all for big brother and the system, i served it well but now im doing security i needed to learn some more and an ideal read when stuck in the car with a boring partner,

Would not recommend this, this is a text book, type book only.

Interesting enough read. Writing style can be hard work in places.Spends a lot of time talking about surveillance team tactics, which is interesting and sets a base for counter-surveillance but it takes up a lot. Personally I feel the book would be better if it condensed these sections and put more emphasis on the countermeasures themselves.Overall, not the worst book I've ever read. As with lots of things this is probably best read from an interest point of view (or research for film / book / games etc). After all this is a very practical skill.Dont expect to read this book and become skilled at counter-surveillance measures!
