Editorial reviews
This audiobook engages the listener into a discussion concerning the threats posed by the misuse of small arms. These weapons play a key role in the struggles and wars of our modern world and yet their dangers are often disregarded. In The Small Arms Trade Schroeder, Smith, and Stohl explain the problem with a global society that relies on these weapons. The aim of this introduction is to raise awareness of the issue and propose the need for controlling the public's use of small arms. Richard Aspel's voice captures the tension and severity of the issue. The listener is attentive to his every word.
Critic Reviews
“A Beginner's Guide is much too modest a title. This uniquely valuable book combines historical depth, contemporary insights, scholarly analysis and prudent advocacy to make it far more than a primer for the untutored.” (Joe Smaldone – Former Chief, Weapons and Technology Control Division, Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, U.S. State Department; and Adjunct Professor, Georgetown University)
“Schroeder, Smith and Stohl have produced what will surely become an indispensable reference for any reader interested in the nature and consequences of the trade in small arms and the policies needed to effectively deal with the lethal consequences of such trade.” (Moisés Naim – Editor of Foreign Policy magazine and author of Illicit: How Smugglers, Traffickers and copycats are hijacking the global economy.)
"As an introductory text, this book certainly makes an admirable effort, as it is engaging, accessible and almost exclusively empirical in its approach." (Journal of Peace Research)
