Synopsis

Latimer draws on examples from land, sea and air; he shows how simple some tricks have been, but also how technology has increased the range of what is possible, using for instance bogus radio traffic, virtual images, even smell. There is something particularly satisfying about not only beating an opponent but doing so through guile.

Media Reviews
'Engagingly written, punchy and well researched.' -- Birmingham Evening Mail 'Episodes from very distant eras jostle illuminatingly against each other ... The first modern full length (and public) study of deception in warfare. It is completely authoritative' -- The Guardian 20030628
