«Gomorrah: Italy's Other Mafia» is Roberto Saviano's chronicle of the Camorra, published by Pan in paperback (320 pages, in English).
The book exposes how the Camorra, known as the System, controls the economy and life of Naples and the Campania region.

The work was originally published in Italy in 2006; this English edition, translated by Virginia Jewiss, appeared in 2008.
