ATOMSK by Carmichael Smith [aka Paul Linebarger; aka Cordwainer Smith] (New York: Newell, Sloan, Pearce,1949)

Drawing on Paul Linebarger's own expertise in the field of psychological warfare, the book is a study of the personality of a U.S. operative (Major Michael Dugan) who has little in common with James Bond except his extreme resourcefulness under cover and in danger.

It is considered b some to be the first Cold War secret agent novel.
