The twentieth century was dominated by war and by preparations for
war in a way that is unparalleled in history. Originally published
in 1988, this textbook highlights key themes of warfare throughout
the world and emphasizes the gulf between the theory of war and its
practice. The contributors are professional historians and
strategists who consider the impact of war upon society, theories
of insurgency and counter-insurgency and nuclear strategy, as well
as more ‘traditional topics’ such as tactics and strategy on
land, the role of sea power, the evolution of strategic bombing,
colonial and revolutionary warfare. Each chapter discusses recent
research on the topic and provides guides to further reading.
Together they give a clear up-to-date overview of the conflicts
which dominated the twentieth century. This textbook is useful
reading for all students and teachers of strategic and war studies,
military history and international relations and for all those
concerned with the study of major conflicts in the twentieth
century.
