Mark Thomas
As Used On The Famous Nelson Mandela

Synopsis
Mark Thomas is one of the UK's most effective and best-known 
political activists, as well as being a highly successful stand-up 
comedian. His show, "The Mark Thomas Product", ran for six highly 
acclaimed series on Channel Four. Amazingly, this is his first 
book. "As Used on the Famous Nelson Mandela" is a deeply funny, 
deeply disturbing account of Mark's rampage through the arms trade. 
Under a fairly flimsy disguise and with the use of some worryingly 
poor accents, Mark set off on a journey of discovery in the company 
of arms dealers, torture victims, politicians, cops, crusties and 
geeks. The result is a shockingly entertaining read. Managed to set 
himself up as an arms exporter. His account of his encounters, 
adventures and discoveries as he attempted to change the law provide 
a shockingly entertaining read. Embedded within the sharpness of his 
humour is the truth of an industry fraught with loopholes, 
complacency and greed; that allows corrupt regimes to kill, maim and 
displace, but whose deals are often subsidised by the British 
taxpayer. Hard-hitting, laugh-out-loud funny and extremely 
unsettling, "As Used on the Famous Nelson Mandela" is never anything 
less than compulsive.
