## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    I was disappointed with the overall scholarship
  

*by R***. on Reviewed in the United States on April 10, 2016*

While Macrakis offers some intriguing new insights into MfS operations and even though I had something of a vested interest in reading her book, having worked with convicted spy James Hall in Berlin, I was disappointed with the overall scholarship, partially ruined by amateurish editing (e.g., repetitive explanations and breakouts of acronyms only two pages apart) and juvenile typing mistakes.  In the space of only 20 pages we encounter, among others, the following howlers: "an Eastern European capitol," "smuggled through a laundry shoot," and the "Fifth U.S. Army Corp".  This we might expect in an undergraduate paper but certainly not in anything published by the Cambridge University Press.

    Stasi spies and the secrets of the West
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2009*

First, on the positive side, this book contains some excellent information, especially on the story of East Germany's attempts to acquire the means to produce computers and microchips. This is a fascinating tale of the DDR's efforts to make itself into a world-class technology leader. Unfortunately, East Germany couldn't get its hands on the tools and equipment necessary to meet that goal, at least partially because President Ronald Reagan made it almost impossible to acquire it. They went broke trying to produce technology that was already becoming obsolete.Technology was important to the Stasi and the gadgets and materials they produced to equip their spies represented a great effort on their part. The way they acquired and infiltrated the know-how necessary is fascinating.The one major flaw in this book was the organization and repetition. I felt like it didn't flow very well, as if it were several products put together as a single publication. Still, a very good book to read if you're interested in the Cold War, especially in Germany.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Everything you ever wanted to know about the East German Stasi
  

*by J***B on Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2015*

Everything you ever wanted to know about the East German Stasi. This is an excellent book. The author obvious spent a lot of time doing research for the book. I look forward to reading more written by her.
