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