Reader Reviews
This book is a must read for analysts, their managers and analytic solutions developers. Ed Waltz's newest book "Knowledge Management in the Intelligence Enterprise" capitalizes quite handily on the theoretical and practical aspects of "information theory" as presented in his previous book "Information Warfare Principles and Operations" and his extensive contacts and experience with the U.S. Intelligence Community. Waltz's book provides a comprehensive reference that readily marries the technologies, techniques and latest theories and practices of Knowledge Management with the priorities, real-world evolutionary pressure, culture and tradecraft of the U. S. Intelligence Community. He artfully covers the complex trade offs between organizational culture, social trends, real-world realities and analytical innovation. There are more good ideas and success paths identified within its pages than any other book that I have read in the Knowledge Management field. His insights and prescribed solutions warrant close study and contemplation by anyone involved in developing, fielding or using advanced analytical methods whether they are in government or private industry. This book is not a "coffee table" book or a Clancy page turner, but could easily serve as a graduate level text book for developing, fielding and using advanced analytical methods against a wide range of challenging problems. His writing style is very methodical and concise. He is rigorous in citing authoritative sources and his writings are extensively footnoted. (The extensive footnotes and associated hyperlinks may well be worth the price of the book alone.) Mr. Waltz is currently the Technical Director of Intelligence Systems at Veridian.
