'A useful collection on an important aspect of contemporary defence economics.' The Journal of Strategic Studies, Volume 16, Number 4, December 1993
`useful in providing a wealth of information about aspects of security ... valuable for their intelligent treatment of issues and problems which are likely to be relevant for many years to come ... This book is both topical and very useful for anyone who is interested in recent developments in and issues facing the world's military-industrial complexes. It is characterized throughout by clarity in the presentation and analysis of an impressive body of information ... The book is also good at putting current issues into historical context and at looking ahead to problems on the horizon, and as such does more than merely provide a snapshot of the state of the arms industry in the early 1990s' Intelligence and National Security
Well researched book ... Of particular interest to the Indian readers, is the present problems in earstwhile USSR, Australia, and Turkey, the countries on which we have little information. The book contains valuable information on industries in these countries. * USI Journal *
