Product Information
Lester Paldy, a distinguished academic physicist, was tapped by the CIA in 1988 to join the Agency for a "trial run" as they faced a troubling new situation in Russia. That "temporary" assignment would last for 25 years, during which he would find himself tested by a shifting set of responsibilities, his ability to penetrate secret sites, his expertise in approaching and assessing targets for potential value to the Agency, and his personal commitment to breaking down long-held barriers between the CIA and the FBI. He achieved this by demonstrating to CIA officers and FBI special agents how to approach scientists in ways that fit smoothly into their research and organizational cultures. As long as Les Paldy remained at the CIA, agents from both intelligence bases would benefit from this unexpected opportunity. Even today, years after his official departure from the Agency, Les Paldy is invited to the FBI to support agents with his invaluable wisdom and experience. And now, the author extends an invitation to every reader to join him on his life-changing journey as the professor with "No Cloak, No Dagger."

Les is the real deal, and this book is an amazing peek into his extraordinary life and career., Les served for many years as a teacher, mentor, traveling companion, and sounding board for myself and countless others in CIA's Russia house. His knowledge and boundless enthusiasm made us smarter and more effective in countering Russia's efforts., Les Paldy is one of a kind. His scientific and academic credentials gave him entree to America's most intractable enemies. His intellectual prowess and ability to engage foreign scientists provided CIA with eyes and ears in places others could not reach.

This was a crucial skill that heretofore had been missing in intelligence community training. -- James Lawler, former chief, CIA Counterproliferation Division Les served for many years as a teacher, mentor, traveling companion, and sounding board for myself and countless others in CIA's Russia house.
