Richards Heuer's Psychology of Intelligence Analysis is based on a compilation of declassified articles from the CIA's Center for the Study of Intelligence, prepared for intelligence analysts and management. However, this book will benefit anyone conducting analyses of complex scenarios in a structured way, including health care professionals, financial and market analysts from all industry verticals, law enforcement and security staff, auditors and fraud investigators, and many others.

Heuer's point is that `analysts should be self-conscious about their reasoning processes. They should think about how they make judgments and reach conclusions, not just about the judgments and conclusions themselves'. The book presents a discussion of how mental models and subconscious cognitive processes can limit our reasoning capabilities (especially when coping with uncertainty and doubt), as well as an introduction on how we can try to understand and negate these effects.

Richard Heuer knows his stuff. A former director at The Agency, Heuer has the domain expertise to write intelligently about the practice of intelligence analysis. Combine this with his considerable research into the field of psychology, and his clear, succinct style, and you have an excellent source book for anyone interested in how analysts analyze: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Highly recommended.
