Students will learn how to perform the specific actions of problem definition and breakdown, target network modelling, and collaborative sharing in the service of creating a high-quality, actionable intelligence product. This book provides hands-on skill-building and application-moving from the "what" and the "why" to the "how". The first part of the book will introduce the analytic methodology, stressing the basics of model building. The second part of the book comprises case studies with exercises that span issues/topics covering terrorism, law enforcement, military operations, cyber-security, transnational crime, and homeland security. The authors will also provide an instructor's guide with possible solutions for the exercises (as no case has just one "right" answer). "Target-Centric Network Modeling serves as an ideal companion for Intelligence Analysis: A Target-Centric Approach. Drawing on years of experience in the intelligence professions and the academic community, the authors convey complicated concepts clearly, enabling readers to make analytical connections. Target-Centric Networking Model provides an excellent review of terms and information pertinent to the analytic process, and its case studies are relevant, rich in detail, and appropriate for academic and practitioner use." -- Kathleen Hogan "Practice in using various intelligence analysis techniques is vital to student learning Target-Centric Network Modeling, in conjunction with Clark's Intelligence Analysis, provides students the practice needed to master a number of advanced analytic procedures. This book's target-centric network modeling approach is a significant contribution to the field of intelligence analysis." -- Mike Collier
