Critics Review

A first-rate selection of investigative articles from some of the world’s best reporters

“A first-rate selection of investigative articles from some of the world’s best reporters” Guardian “One of the most powerful and upsetting books I have read all year” Ecologist “A superb anthology” Glasgow Herald “Genuine objective journalism not only gets the facts right, it gets the meaning of events right. It is compelling not only today, but stands the test of time. It is validated not only by ‘reliable sources’ but by the unfolding of history. It is journalism that ten, twenty, fifty years after the fact still holds up a true and intelligent mirror to events” – T.D. Allman
