Given the recent explosion of intelligence curricula within academe, Dr. Lockwood's book will certainly become an essential text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate intelligence analysis courses. Mastery of LAMP as described and demonstrated within these pages will likely become a prerequisite for those professional analysts seeking certification in estimative intelligence tradecraft. I expect this title will soon be on many professional intelligence reading lists for national security, competitive intelligence, and law enforcement intelligence analysis fields. Colonel Eric M.
