Public Corruption

Robert Neild

Description

A fascinating, confrontational investigation of the nature of corruption, its narcissistic origins and destructive future.

'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.
