  Meticulously researched, packed with tales of greed and treachery, of boardroom battles, industrial espionage and organized theft, Car Wars tells the history of the world in the second half of the twentieth century as seen through the development of the car industry. It takes the reader on a rollercoaster ride from the ruins of Berlin and Tokyo in 1945, through Detroit, Moscow and Calcutta, to Korea, Hong Kong and Shanghai in the 1990s, as it identifies the winners and the losers in the drive towards the 21st century.
