Volume One - Covert Audio Intercept

(Published: 785 Pages)

Surreptitious eavesdropping devices including miniature microphones and transmitters (bugs), telephone wiretaps, body wires, and directional microphones.

This volume describes how to monitor everything said in a room or over telephone/fax/cellular communication systems. It describes how to achieve surveillance without having to physically access the premises; how to eavesdrop from the other side of the world; how to monitor for indefinite periods of time; and how to come up with evidence strong enough to stand up in court. Complete explanations in layman's terms are given of the radio frequency spectrum, as well as the physics of electricity and sound and how they affect the operation of all devices. In addition, there is a lively background section on the history of the art of surveillance.
