History is both the past and our accounts of the past. In
"Rethinking World War Two," Jeremy Black explores the contesting
accounts and interpretations of the war, critically examining the
leading controversies surrounding the conflict, its aftermath and
its ongoing significance in the modern world. The first half of the
book considers controversies surrounding the course of the war,
with chapters looking at the importance of military history, the
causes of the war, politics and grand strategy and domestic
politics. The second half goes on to consider the memory of the war
and its echoes in political and military spheres, with chapters
devoted to the memory of the war in Europe and in Asia. A detailed
further reading section provides guidance on how to take study of
various topics further. "Rethinking World War Two" is unique in
offering a survey of both the events of the conflict and the
various debates surrounding its memory. It will be an invaluable
resource for any student of the Second World War, particularly
those seeking a better understanding of its continuing legacy in
the postwar world.
