The very scale of the 1939-45 war has often tempted historians to
study particular campaigns at the expense of the wider panorama. In
this readable and richly detailed history of the conflict, the
Belgian scholar Ernest Mandel (author of the acclaimed Late
Capitalism) outlines his view that the war was in fact a
combination of several distinct struggles and a battle between
rival imperialisms for world hegemony. In concise chapters, Mandel
examines the role played by technology, science, logistics, weapons
and propaganda. Throughout, he weaves a consideration of the
military strategy of the opposing states into his analytical
narrative of the war and its results.
