Publisher's Synopsis

War in the Twentieth Century is a comprehensive analysis of the major wars and conflicts that took place in the 20th century. Written by Willard Waller, a prominent sociologist and professor, the book provides a detailed account of the causes, events, and aftermath of each war, as well as their impact on society and international relations.The book begins with an overview of the political and social factors that led to the outbreak of World War I, and then goes on to examine the major battles and strategies employed during the conflict. It also explores the impact of the war on the global economy and politics, and the role it played in shaping the rest of the century.The second half of the book focuses on the major conflicts of the 20th century, including World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Gulf War. Waller provides a detailed analysis of each conflict, including the political and military strategies employed, the impact on civilian populations, and the long-term consequences for international relations.Throughout the book, Waller emphasizes the importance of understanding the social, economic, and political factors that contribute to war, and the need for effective strategies to prevent future conflicts. War in the Twentieth Century is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of warfare and its impact on society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
