&"Patton puts forward an interesting proposal that can improve multidimensional intelligence analysis by focusing on those &"hidden&" social and cultural aspects we currently ignore. It is clear we need a new type of intelligence officer and decision-maker that appreciate the value of these intangibles and then commit themselves on collecting, analyzing and acting upon them in our quest for understanding, and solving the world's problems.&"--Dalene Duvenage, CEO, 4Knowledge Analysis Solutions, South Africa., "Kerry Patton has a passion for improving the security of our country, and for improving how we carry out a vital mission in the Global War on Terror. Patton has had his boots on the ground, squatted in the dust, ate goat with his hands, and imbibed the culture of our allies and enemies. He does a valuable service in opening the discussion of applying anthropology (the study of culture) to our greater National Security needs. This work should be just the first salvo in the battle to confirm the justness of Kerry's approach. We cannot allow misguided academics to take away a valuable tool in our efforts to do the right thing." --Kent Clizbe, Cross-cultural Humint Expert, Educator, and Commentator, &"Kerry Patton has a passion for improving the security of our country, and for improving how we carry out a vital mission in the Global War on Terror.

After operating and living with local Afghans, his supporting evidence matches that which Major General Michael Flynn recently described in his works Fixing Intel: A Blueprint for Making Intelligence Relevant in Afghanistan. With billions of dollars expended and lives of America's finest continuously endangered, there is no better time to incorporate a "Sociocultural Intelligence" discipline in defeating asymmetrical threats. MUST READ!" --Thomas G. McInerney, Lt. Gen. USAF (Ret)

Synopsis
The book offers an in-depth analysis and conceptualization of a much needed intelligence discipline, Sociocultural intelligence (SOCINT). SOCINT means observing and analyzing such elements as the land, the people, and their communities. Customs, moral attitudes, and culture of foreign populations are integrated into the analysis of the information gathered to maximize the efficiency of security initiatives. A key tool in intelligence and covert operations, SOCINT can mostly be used for non-lethal operations that require a thorough understanding of networks and systems. Simply, by understanding the behavioral aspects of relationships and systems, we will have a greater opportunity for 'success' by knowing who, what, where, when, why, and how to influence within the systems themselves. Not only a tool for war fighting, SOCINT is needed for multiple uses, such as law enforcement operations and business. Written by an international expert, this unique book combines theoretical analysis with practical application to present and advocate for the systematic use of SOCINT to students and practitioners in intelligence studies, intelligence communities, and national security.

    Fast shipping. Arrived wrapped in plastic to protect it. Price was good. The only issue I have is that it was listed as brand new but arrived with covers slightly damaged and brown spots on some pages. Overall though I'm not unhappy and would buy from this seller again.

    Arrived in Perfect Condition because it was packaged well......in a heavier envelope inside one of those flimsy plastic ones. A+ for packaging. Good price as well. The mailman tried his best to mess things up since I also got several other packages (it was like Christmas!!), but the packaging saved the day. Would definitely buy from again. Superb seller!

    I was wary at first with the image in the listing, but it arrived carefully packed and sealed with all the original inclusions. Shipping was also pretty fast. Good seller, would recommend. Thank you so much!
