‘This is an excellent compendium of chapters on this relatively neglected sphere of international political studies. It brings together an impressive range of expertise in the field who examine the many dimensions and facets of the international arms trade. The volume succeeds in being both accessible to the nonspecialist, while also conveying the directions in which more advanced research is progressing.’
