The Shadow World Inside the Global Arms Trade by Andrew Feinstein is a gripping investigation into the secretive world of international arms trade. Feinstein delves behind the scenes of BAE's controversial transactions in Africa, Eastern Europe and the US, revealing corruption, cover-ups and shocking links between formal government-backed trade and illicit deals. This book sheds light on the revolving-door relationships that characterise the Congressional-Military-Industrial Complex. A powerful study, The Shadow World is a heroic book by an author who has put himself in the firing line to expose the truth about this shadowy world.
