The War of the World: 20th Century Conflict and the Descent of the West"

The War of the World: Twentieth-Century Conflict and the Descent of the West, examines why the 20th century proved to be the most violent, frightening and brutalized century in history with fanatical, often genocidal warfare engulfing most societies between the outbreak of World War I and the end of the Cold War. The War of the World explores what went wrong with the century and how society was responsible.
