Robert M. Clark has more than five decades of U.S. intelligence
community experience. A USAF lieutenant colonel (retired), Dr.
Clark served as an electronics warfare officer and intelligence
officer. At the CIA, he was a senior analyst and group chief
responsible for developing analytic methodologies. He was cofounder
and CEO of the Scientific and Technical Analysis Corporation, a
privately held company serving the U.S. intelligence community.
Clark holds an SB from MIT, a PhD in electrical engineering from
the University of Illinois, and a JD from George Washington
University. Beyond analyzing wicked intelligence issues, his
passion is writing on the topic of intelligence. His books include
Intelligence Analysis: A Target-Centric Approach (5th edition,
2016), The Technical Collection of Intelligence (2010), and
Intelligence Collection (2014). He is coauthor, with Dr. William
Mitchell, of Target-Centric Network Modeling (2015) and Deception:
Counterdeception and Counterintelligence (2019); and coeditor, with
Dr. Mark Lowenthal, of Intelligence Collection: The Five
Disciplines (2015). Dr. Clark also develops and teaches courses for
audiences in academia, national intelligence, and the military. He
currently serves as an adjunct professor at the Johns Hopkins
University teaching graduate courses.
"Intelligence Collection is an excellent choice for both
students and the intelligence community. It is well organized,
follows a logical approach, and systematically covers each aspect
of intelligence collection."
*Dr. Daniel J. Benny*
"This book will add tremendously to the study of intelligence, as
it lays out the sources of intelligence in a very logical sequence,
and in a very easily understandable format."
*Ken Stiles*
"Robert Clark has developed a text with a comprehensive survey and
taxonomy of the myriad disciplines within intelligence collection.
He usefully places these in the framework of structure, function,
and process. This workman-like approach will be helpful to students
new to this subject."
*Kenneth deGraffenreid*
"I like the extensive use of anecdotal examples, based on actual
situations. Each topic’s explicit examples provide significant
interest as you read through the text."
*Robert Duval*
