    The Evolution of Warfare from 1945 to Gaza

    BOOK OF THE YEAR IN: ASPECTS OF HISTORY, THE CRITIC, OCTAVIAN, AND MODERN WAR INSTITUTE SHORTLISTED FOR THE MILITARY HISTORY MATTERS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD ‘How has warfare evolved in the eight decades since 1945? And what might it look like in the future? These are the questions posed by the authorial dream team of David Petraeus and Andrew Roberts: respectively a distinguished former US general and spy chief, and one of Britain’s finest military historians. This brilliant history shows how the wars of the future may go. Elegantly written and persuasively argued, Conflict is a hugely important book that explains why wars are still being fought and lost, what we can learn from them, and how we can protect ourselves from malign actors in the future’ DAILY TELEGRAPH, FIVE-STAR REVIEW ‘Charts just about every war fought in Europe, the Middle East and Asia since the defeat of the Nazis… [a] compendious narrative… has all the more force in light of Israel’s retaliatory assault on Gaza’ FINANCIAL TIMES ‘Timely, engaging and instructive, Conflict is the best one-volume study of conventional warfare in the nuclear age. It sets a new benchmark in understanding modern war’ WALL STREET JOURNAL ‘The pairing of Roberts with Petraeus is an engaging choice… They spend little time imagining a world without war, or even a world with less war. Their book – like Clausewitz’s canonical text – is a primer for today’s strategists, brimming with lessons about leadership, counter-insurgency, and intelligence. It’s a guide to effectively prepare for and win wars of the future, to achieve perpetual peace through perpetual strength’ NEW STATESMAN

    The Enduring Crown Commonwealth

    The Past, Present, and Future of the UK-Canada-ANZ Alliance and Why It Matters

    In this timely and insightful study, the authors explain how, after Brexit, Britain began to aggressively look for new alliance partners and establish special bonds with three English-speaking states: Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. These countries have more in common with one another than most other groups of countries do. Together, they constitute a significant bloc and could help strengthen not only the Commonwealth but also their American and European allies. The book provides an inspiring vision for a future where the strong ties between these Commonwealth states—including a common language, history, culture, and political systems—and concrete steps toward reestablishing cooperation will increase mutual benefits. This "CANZUK" alliance is reconverging on issues of trade, defense, foreign policy, freedom of movement, and other areas. Despite the many comprehensive trade deals struck between them, several things could still derail the reconvergence, including a possible breakup of the UK itself in the event of Scottish independence. However, their common history, tradition, culture, language, and political systems should quickly resolve any emerging hurdles. Their commonalities will prove much stronger than their differences. Recommended. General readers through faculty; professionals.
