Why do people wage war? How can wars be won? How has warfare been
an engine of change for human civilization-for better and for
worse? In this book Paul Schuurman shows how some of the best
Western minds between 1650 and 1900 tried to answer these questions
in an epoch when European developments became a matter of global
concern. In eight wide-ranging chapters he discusses the key
concepts that philosophers and generals of this era developed to
grasp and influence the dramatic and horrific phenomenon of war.
Their concepts remain fresh and relevant down to the present day.
