[[Philip Agee]] wrote in 1978:
 
{{QB|The importance of [[books]] is recognized in the [[CIA]], as in this passage from a memorandum written in [[1961]] by the Chief of the Covert Action Staff: "Books differ from other [[propaganda me- dia]], primarily because one single book can significantly change the reader's attitude and action to an extent unmatched by the impact of any other single medium."  For this reason, presumably, the CIA has continued to publish books. Although it apparently ceased publishing in the U.S. in [[1967]] (following the major scandal relating to the CIA's penetration of domestic institutions, especially the [[National Student Association]]), the CIA since then "has published some 250 books abroad, most of them in foreign languages."<ref>Philip Agee & Louis Wolf - [https://archive.org/details/pdfy-9MwmH_nnJ4eOmL66/page/n257/mode/2up Dirty Work] (1978), page 262 </ref>}}
