"The book exposes the dealers in doom---the powerful interests that profit so handsomely from military contracts and other 'benefits' of the cold war. The author reveals the huge profits from the arms business and from the closely related foreign investments of the largest U.S. corporations by size, industry, location, and interest groups. He shows which regions of the country depend most upon arms for jobs." -- From the dust cover.
