Cloth. Zustand: Very Good/Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition.

Women everywhere will readily identify with her aims: having a successful and satisfying career; relating well to her child and to her friends; creating a real home; following a diet which keeps her slim and produces high energy; choosing clothes and make-up to reflect her personal style; and, yes, having a great sex life.

Cloth. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 2nd Impression. Hardcover 0283987812 price clippedThe full, unexpurgated truth about the Russian penetration of the Free World's secret defences. When this book was first published in March 1981, it immediately became a sensational number one best-seller, making headlines around the world with its inside story of treachery and cover-up in high places. Chapman Pincher's revelation that a former head of MI5, Sir Roger Hollis, had been suspected by his colleagues of being a Soviet spy and twice subjected to official investigation, was confirmed by Margaret Thatcher from the despatch box in the House of commons. In this new edition of the book, the author has added much fascinating new material that has come to light as a result of his revelations. He now names several important figures who had perforce to remain unidentified in the first edition. He also describes the two enquiries ordered by the Primce Minister - the first into the British Security Services, and the second into how he obtained his information. Publicity surrounding the revelation about Sir Roger Hollis has perhaps obscured the truly sensational nature of this book, for the author has secured the most authentic, first-hand accounts of the workings of espionage and counter-espionage ever published. No writer has ever before penetrated so deeply and authoriatively into this world.
