The Conflict In Iraq 2003

Since Bush's infamous "Axis of Evil" speech, war in Iraq was a seemingly inevitable consequence of the War on Terrorism. Cornish brings together an expert group of analysts to provide a balanced and coherent study of the pre-War build up, all aspects of the conflict, and the War's political and economic ramifications for all involved.

Paul Cornish is the Director of the Centre for Defence Studies, King's College London
