A Study of War de Quincy Wright

A Study of War

Autor Quincy Wright
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 1983
Louis Leonard Wright's abridgment of this classic work reorganizes some of Wright's material and deletes footnotes and appendixes, but still retains the power and impact of the original.

"The most comprehensive work ever published in any language on the history, the nature, the causes, and the cure of war. . . . A Study of War is a liberal education in the social disciplines."—Frederick L. Schuman

"A major contribution to the realistic study of international relations."—Garrett Mattingly, New York Times
