Hardback. Condizione: Fair. The real-life cloak-and-dagger story of how East Germany's notorious spy agency infiltrated churches here and abroad East Germany only existed for a short 40 years, but in that time, the country's secret police, the Stasi, developed a highly successful church department that - using persuasion rather than threats - managed to recruit an extraordinary stable of clergy spies. Pastors, professors, seminary students, and even bishops spied on colleagues, other Christians, and anyone else they could report about to their handlers in the Stasi. Thanks to its pastor spies, the Church Department (official name: Department X/4) knew exactly what was happening and being planned in the country's predominantly Lutheran churches. Yet ultimately it failed in its mission: despite knowing virtually everything about East German Christians, the Stasi couldn't prevent the church-led protests that erupted in 1989 and brought down the Berlin Wall.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. When the Berlin Wall came down, the files of the East German secret police, the much-dreaded Stasi, were opened and read. And among the shocking stories revealed was that of the Stasi's infiltration of the Church. Almost 10% of the Lutheran Church's workforce were, it appears, busy involved in spying on each other, and on the Church's congregations. The Lutheran Church was the only semi-free space in East Germany, where those who rebelled against the regime could find a way of living at least a little out of the government's iron grip. Even the organisations that smuggled Bibles were infiltrated.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Beneath the oceans, a war is quietly unfolding - a battle over the pipelines and digital cables that carry the oil, gas and data modern life depends on. These invisible networks, stretching across the globe, are vital, and increasingly under threat. We must pay attention, before it's too late. In The Undersea War, award-winning journalist Elisabeth Braw exposes the frontlines of this hidden conflict. Minute by minute, hour by hour, she recounts incidents with nail-biting suspense: mysterious damage to undersea cables, shadowy ships loitering near pipelines and the growing realization that these vital arteries may be deliberately targeted. From Arctic ice to tropical seas, ordinary people - from islanders cut off from the digital world to officials confronting suspicious foreign vessels - feel the consequences of a conflict most of the world does not even know exists. Drawing on deep reporting and exclusive interviews with ship captains and crews, witnesses, policymakers and executives, Braw moves across continents and oceans - from the Arctic waters of Svalbard to the Baltic Sea, from the Matsu Islands off Taiwan to England, Denmark, Tanzania, Indonesia, and beyond - revealing a globe-spanning struggle for control beneath the waves. Urgent and immersive, The Undersea War is a gripping, international investigation into an invisible conflict that could determine who controls the world's future. A gripping account of the hidden battles beneath the world's oceans, where cables and pipelines - the lifelines of the modern world - are under constant threat from states, corporations, and hackers.
