Russian Spies in America - A Book Review

Cold War spying is well-documented, but have you ever wondered just how bad it was? Have you ever considered how long it has gone on? Would you like to take a gander into history and see for yourself? If so, I'd sure like to recommend a very good book to you. The name of the book is;

"Techno-Bandits How the Soviets are Stealing America's High-Tech Future" By Linda Melvern, Nick Anning, David Hebditch, and Mark Hosenball, 1984.

The Cold War was one of spies and military espionage and it was waged all over the world. Not only did Russia and the US prevent each other from expansionism and from gaining headway with client nations, but the Russians stole us blind when it came to technology. And even if one is oblivious to the realities of the time, one cannot but smile in amazement of how many super technological advances happened in Russia and the US at exactly the same time; coincidence? Doubtful.

"Ronald Reagan called it a hemorrhaging of technology," and "A multimillion dollar underground trade in the theft of technology."

The examples in this book are too numerous to mention. It is absolutely undeniable that the Russians have stolen more technology from the United States of America than any other group of foreign spies in history. They stole even more than the Japanese. Although the Chinese industrial espionage spies are now catching up with the Russians now and should surpass their technological theft over the last six decades, it is amazing how much did this cost our country. And the Russians technology thievery goes on today. Indeed, I hope you will read this book, so that you understand the truth.
