'Public Corruption' is a stimulating and entertaining book about a daunting problem: the influence on public corruption of the changing nature of warfare. It will be of as much interest to the general reader and those around the seats of power as it is to historians and social scientists. The quality of the writing alone makes it a delight to read.
'Anyone who is concerned about the mounting epidemic of global corruption should read this original and forthright book.' Anthony Sampson, author of "The Arms Bazaar"
Robert Neild is a retired Professor of Economics and a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge.
