Former GICHD Deputy Director, Ian Mansfield, has recently published his memoir, which recounts over twenty years of work in the mine action sector. His book, Stepping into a Minefield highlights the dangers and the tragedies involved in landmine clearance, but also reveals the great humanity, dedication and humour of the thousands of brave men and women clearing landmines today. It also outlines the political, cultural and security ‘minefields’ that Ian had to navigate along the way, which were often more difficult to deal with than the real minefields.
