The arms trade, culture and politics through the lens of the world's deadliest weapon
Vodka, chess, hip-hop and child soldiers... All these are linked by the Kalashnikov, the iconic but deadly Russian rifle. There are some 90 million of these guns - and they do not die when their owners do. A provocative read that explains the arms trade, politics and culture through the grimly fascinating lens of the worlds deadliest weapon.
This book shows how the kalashnikov has had an explosive effect on the modern world. Examined from every angle, it shows the connections between this weapon and major world issues, such as war, money and corruption. Short, sharp and provocative, including unusual, hard-to-find facts and figures.
124 x 174 mm, 96 pages, paperback.
