The Arms Trade

Edited by Gideon Burrows

"Gideon Burrows gives a chilling insight into how the arms trade works
and how the deals are cut long before the weapons are deployed."

Guns, landmines, bombs and rockets ­ the arms trade brings death and destruction to millions of people around the world, many of them civilians. Yet many of these weapons are made in countries which are members of the UN Security Council. Exposing the cynicism, bribery, insider deals and political back scratching which characterise today's arms trade, Gideon Burrows not only looks at the trade in conventional arms but also at the transfer of torture tools to some of the world's worst human rights abusers.
