Laurel’s Reviews > Stories Are Weapons: Psychological Warfare and the American Mind > Status Update

Fascinating all the early and mid century authors who worked in intelligence. She hasn’t even touched on the obvious ones (Greene, Le Carré, Fleming). Some of the plots of their stories sound fascinating. For example, midcentury CIA analyst and author Alice Sheldon, writing as James Tiptree, wrote about cyborg influencers that corporations use to sell goods. Prescient much?
