Weapons have always attracted controversy. In the modern media age, however, they are also surrounded by confusion and misunderstanding. Tools of Violence unravels the myths of modern weaponry, explaining how a weapon system works, how it is applied by soldiers, police or civilians under pressure, what happens when innocents get in the way, its effect on the human body or physical structures, its political controversies, and its place in international law. Judgements are backed up by interviews with those directly engaged with weapons technology, including frontline soldiers, police officers, academics, weapons specialists and defence analysts. Accessible and absorbing, Tools of Violence is essential reading for those wanting to understand the weapons technology of today and how and why it is used.
