The book The Strategy Of Truth: The Story Of The U.S. Information Service by Wilson P. Dizard is a comprehensive account of the United States Information Service (USIS) and its role in shaping American foreign policy during the Cold War era. The author, who served as a USIS officer in the Middle East and Asia, provides a detailed analysis of the organization's strategies and tactics in disseminating information about American culture, values, and policies to foreign audiences.The book traces the history of USIS from its inception in 1953 to its dissolution in 1999, highlighting key events and personalities that shaped its evolution. It also examines the challenges and controversies that the organization faced, including accusations of propaganda and censorship.Through interviews with former USIS officers and archival research, Dizard sheds light on the inner workings of the organization and its impact on American foreign policy. He argues that USIS played a critical role in promoting democracy and human rights around the world, and that its legacy continues to influence U.S. public diplomacy efforts today.Overall, The Strategy Of Truth is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of American foreign policy and the role of public diplomacy in shaping international relations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
