From early fighting to the withdrawal and return of coalition troops, the Arab Spring and the rise of ISIS, the book explores the scale and causes of deaths and places them in the contexts of power struggles, US foreign policy and radicalisation. Casting fresh light on not just the conflict but international geopolitics and the history of Iraq, it constructs a unique and insightful human security approach to war.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Hamourtziadou's account of the Iraq Body Count's work and its wider role in stimulating the recording of casualties in modern warfare, should be required reading for everyone concerned with issues of international peace and justice.
