• Who is Slobodan Milosevic? Is he the next Saddam Hussein or Moammar Qaddafi? This work pulls away the veil of secrecy to expose the man behind the atrocities of Kosovo, giving an account of one man’s rise to power through corruption, lies and distortion.

• Review: Like many other books claiming to profile Milosevic, it instead goes through a narrative of events surrounding his dictatorship of the 1990’s. Though there are a few snippets of investigation into his real character and moral persona, such investigation is inevitably made very difficult by the private nature of a man simply known by many as ‘The Butcher of the Balkans’. -Provides a very good starting point for people interested in the breakup of Yugoslavia. However, because it was published in 99′, a full biography of Milosevic, particularly his trial(s and tribulations) at the UN War Crimes Tribunal are not within this book.

• Dusko Doder is a former Washington Post reporter, editor, and foreign correspondent. He is also author of several non-fiction books including Shadows and Whispers: Power Politics Inside the Kremlin from Brezhnev to Gorbachev, and a best-selling Gorbachev biography, Heretic in the Kremlin. He is a graduate of Washington University in St. Louis, and holds two advance degrees from Columbia University. Doder’s dispatches from Moscow were awarded the Overseas Press Club Citations for Excellence in 1982 and 1989, and the 1984 Edward Weintal Prize for Diplomatic Reporting of Georgetown University. Doder had a world beat on the death of Soviet leader Yuri Andropov, much to the chagrin of the CIA which had strongly denied his report. He was the only western correspondent to interview Andropov’s successor, Konstantin Chernenko. He has been a fellow at the Woodrow Wilson Center in 1976-77 and 1985-86, and a senior fellow at the US Institute of Peace, 1996-97.
