Not worth the money

Zero information in this book that you couldn’t pick up in the most basic book on communication skills. If there is any relevant connection between this “book” and being a spy it is at best a tenuous one.

Lacking depth or any real insight

These books could be the introductory paragraph of an article on any of the subjects. If you're looking for a high level overview with very little evidence of the efficacy of techniques discussed then you might like this. Could just have easily been written by a non-spy. The audio also has a distinct hiss in the background of the voice consistent with a poor recording which someone has tried to mask with subpar noise gating. A waste of a credit.
