Just picked it up today...

But I will look into it presuming that the Intelligence Community only has specific needs and functions and the Acts covered by the asterist have been abridged for Intelligence Community use. It is a Reference Book and that would mean it is not comprehensive.

But you can get the entire Acts from the Statutes at Large. As best I recall, there are no hidden portions of those Acts. What you can probably do is find a part in the entire act and ask me if it was provided in this reference book?
