Gideon Burrows, a London based journalist
and activist with Campaign Against the Arms Trade (CAAT), has a
new book out No Nonsense
Guide To The Arms Trade, published by Verso in October
2002.
Exposing the cynicism,
bribery, insider deals, and political back-scratching that
characterize today's arms trade, 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. With
personal stories of protests and encounters with the arms business, The
No-Nonsense Guide to the Arms Trade is not just a book, it is a call
to action.
