Reviews

'Thank God for Noam Chomsky ... Ruthless in his analysis of Nato's lies, relentless in his emphasis on the parallels between Kosovo, Central America and Turkey, he believes that this year's bombardment of Serbia undermines what is left of international law'
*Robert Fisk, Independent*

'A powerful and convincing alternative framework for understanding the NATO war on Yugoslavia'
*Edward S. Herman*
