Assassination by drone is a subject of deep and enduring fascination, yet few understand how and why it has become our principal way of waging war. Kill Chainuncovers the real and extraordinary story of drone warfare – its origins in long-buried secret programs, the breakthroughs that made drone operations possible, and the ways in which the technology works and, despite official claims, does not work.

Most importantly of all, the book describes what has really happened when the theories underpinning the strategy – and the multibillion-dollar contracts they spawn – have been put to the test.
