Being a spy is serious business, and not everyone is cut out for this kind of work. But there are traits that every good spy requires that would benefit all of us. Daniel Brand gives us a general idea of what necessitates a secret agent in How to Think Like a Spy. Most of the contents in this book are either how to be aware of your surroundings or how to prepare to take action.

I find this book fun and informative, even reading captions to my children to have them practice. Daniel Brand explains how he can read body language, but I found this great for teaching how to control your body language so you aren’t so readable and become a victim yourself.

It is excellent reading material for not only adults who are a little innocent about cyber attacks, but also young people who maybe too trusting or innocent of how bad guys really work. Or even a refresher on what we already know, but need to be told again.

How to Think Like A Spy is a good book on the teaching of technique of spying. The book initially starts as a word in self protection and self defense in some of the offensive situations and then moves on how to dress, act and think like a spy. The book is good for laymen who want to know how to act in moments of stress and natural and man made hazards. I liked the chapter that told me how to intruder proof my home in the best possible manner. However, some of the things on acting and being like a spy was not totally fresh such as the info on how to act and mingle like a local at a foreign location to avoid standing out in the crowd and how to use a different pace than other people when walking. Still, the book is very interesting to read. Moreover, it is short and could be thought as the first step towards a career as spy.
