Description
Everett Carl Dolman examines the relationship between science and war in this thought-provoking new book.
The author considers how science has played a role in ending wars, from tanks breaching trench warfare to atom bombs hastening Japanese surrender. However, he argues that while science can make wars more destructive, it cannot, on its own, end war without also changing what it means to be human.
