Description

A provocative look at war as a key element of human history.

Even a cursory study of our history is enough to see how war permeates all its stages: it creates and destroys regimes and empires, stimulates the development of science and technology, and also changes the social and political structure of society. The relationship between war and society is two-way.

War brings out both the worst and the best of human nature. It is she who shaped the history of mankind, our social and political institutions, values and ideas. Language, public spaces, memory and other cultural assets are an attempt to make sense of the heroism and suffering caused by war.

Historian Margaret Macmillan explores how war has affected human society and how changes in political organization, technology and ideology have shaped the way we wage war. From antiquity to the present, Macmillan examines the lessons of past conflicts, showing that war has many faces.
