This meticulously researched work delves into how economic interests drive conflicts, revealing the often-hidden mechanisms that link the prosperity of nations and corporations to the engines of war. Ahadi explores the vast economic networks that fuel military operations, from the halls of government to the offices of private military contractors and the boardrooms of multinational corporations. Through a series of compelling chapters, the book uncovers how these entities profit from warfare, examining the moral and social repercussions of a world economy deeply entangled with the business of conflict. "War: The Greatest Business in the World" is not just a critique but a call to action. It challenges readers to consider the profound costs of war-costs measured not only in human lives but also in the stunted development of societies focused more on arming themselves than on fostering peace.

Perfect for students of political science, history, and economics, as well as anyone interested in understanding the true impact of military spending on global peace and economic stability.
