'Contemporary Intelligence in Africa makes an important contribution to the intelligence studies scholarship. Gwatiwa offers an insightful collection of chapters, which provide research on many different aspects of African intelligence, including politicisation, professionalisation, and democratisation...Undoubtedly this book will be an important volume for intelligence and security studies scholars interested in Africa, counterterrorism, insurgency and professionalisation.'
