    This will probably go in my eldest's stack of reading gifts this year, as she's trying to execute a Int. Relations track in university. The professors tend to do a fair job of describing what the Dulles brothers did, but rarely have time to go deep enough to get to the unsettling "hows" and "whys".

    If I understand your statement I have to disagree, while this obviously wasn't a how to book , it went in sufficient detail for me to understand their strategies for destabilizing and replacing the targeted regimes. As to the why, the book focused on the why at length.

    I was using professors in the larger sense of academics who are usually found teaching 200 level US foreign policy courses. Not the author(s).
