About this product
Product Information
North Korea continues to make headlines, arousing curiosity and fear in equal measure. The world's most secretive nuclear power, it still has Gulag-style prison camps, allows no access to the Internet and bans its people from talking to foreigners without official approval. In this remarkable and eye-opening book, internationally best-selling author Paul French examines in forensic detail the history and politics of North Korea, Pyongyang's complex relations with South Korea, Japan, China and America, and the implications of Kim Jong-un's increasingly belligerent leadership following the death of his father, Kim Jong-il. As an already unstable North Korea grows ever more unpredictable, antagonizing enemies and allies alike, North Korea: State of Paranoia delivers a provocative and frightening account of a potentially explosive nuclear tripwire.Product Identifiers

Highly recommended and beautifully written
I knew little about North Korea before reading this book and now know a lot more. It's laid out in such a way that if you wish you can fairly easily skip (eg) chapters that are very heavy on politics - and there are some, without losing the essence of the place and those who are trying to run it. A clear, informative and entertaining read from someone who really knows what they're talking about. At times I was left open-mouthed.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
