Pulling back the curtain on the secretive world of the global arms trade, Andrew Feinstein reveals the corruption and the cover-ups behind weapons deals ranging from the largest in history - between the British and Saudi governments - to BAE's controversial transactions in South Africa, Tanzania and eastern Europe, and the revolving-door relationships that characterise the US Congressional-Military-Industrial Complex. He exposes in forensic detail both the formal government-to-government trade in arms and the shadow world of illicit weapons dealing - and lays bare the shocking and inextricable links between the two.
The Shadow World places us in the midst of the arms trade's dramatic wheeling and dealing, ranging from corporate boardrooms to seedy out-of-the-way hotels via far-flung offshore havens, and reveals the profound danger this network represents to all of us.
Checked out Shadow World at bookstore this evening. WOW. The book is an encyclopedia of weapons dealing and gov't corruption. Extremely impressive!

If it weren't for the invention of the Internet, the world would have continued to be taken for fools until we all ended up in complete slavery. After investigation and exposure, should come hangings. President Dwight Eisenhower warned us about the military-industrial complex many years ago but most people didn't take it too seriously at that time.
