Given the dangers in the world--from terrorism to pandemics--nations must have effective spy services; yet, to prevent the misuse of secret power, democracies must also ensure that their spies are well supervised. Loch Johnson's Spy Watching focuses on the obstacles encountered by America as it pursues more effective intelligence accountability.

How should we define the role of secret agencies in a democratic society? Can a balance be struck between civil liberties and national security? These are questions addressed in Loch Johnson''s book, an overview of the CIA and its activities in American affairs, both domestic and foreign.
