| Wars create dramatic change in a very short period of time and are therefore fascinating to historians and general readers alike. This thorough, accessible work traces the role of warfare in world history and the dramatic consequences of these pivotal events. Covering the major periods of military history, Neiberg details the evolution of technology in weaponry as well as the social, political, and cultural forces at the heart of these key conflicts. From the pre-gunpowder era to the wars of liberation fought across the Third World, this monumental survey focuses not only on the famous and heroic, but also on the countless millions who have fought for these causes throughout history. |
