Sempre houve pessoas empenhadas em evitar guerras, prevenir situações de conflito, preservar a natureza e evitar a proliferação de artefatos nucleares. Mas será que, ainda assim, a insanidade dos homens conduzirá o planeta à sua destruição por conta de guerras nucleares e desequilíbrio ecológico? Será que temos feito esforços adequados para manter a paz entre nações e a habitabilidade deste nosso abrigo comum? Este livro estabelece, de certa forma, um diálogo com História das guerras, recentemente publicado pela Editora Contexto.

Milenar tratado militar de Sun Tzu, A Arte da Guerra é tão compreensível e atual que se tornou um texto clássico. Acredita-se, inclusive, que o livro tenha sido usado ao longo dos tempos por estrategistas militares como Napoleão, Adolf Hitler e Mao Tse Tung. Hoje, o livro migrou das estantes dos estrategistas para a dos economistas, administradores, políticos, vendedores, empresários e todos aqueles cuja meta é a vitória – em todos os níveis.

La Première Guerre mondiale a été appelée « la guerre qui mettrait fin à toutes les guerres »... ce ne fut pas le cas. Dans ce récit concis de la Première Guerre mondiale, nous examinons les raisons de son déclenchement, les réactions qu'elle a suscitées et, finalement, la mort de ceux qui ont consenti le plus grand sacrifice. Nous entendons souvent parler du grand sacrifice consenti lors des guerres ultérieures, mais l'histoire de la Première Guerre mondiale offre une profondeur d'analyse sur le contexte de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.

No mundo todo, a mídia, mais preocupada em chocar do que em informar, associa a Israel a imagem de um estado militarista, que promove massacres de palestinos e se opõe a qualquer tentativa de paz na região.

Agosto de 1942: o Brasil declara guerra ao Eixo. O estopim: o ataque a vários navios mercantes e de passageiros brasileiros no litoral do Nordeste por uma ofensiva naval nazista, provocando a morte de centenas de inocentes. Por que os nazistas afundaram navios desarmados de um país até então não envolvido na guerra? Qual era o objetivo do governo comandado por Hitler? "Operação Brasil" revela a origem dos eventos que culminaram com esse ataque e levaram nosso país a entrar na Segunda Guerra Mundial.

"Da Guerra Fria à Nova Ordem Mundial" foge do lugar comum à maior parte das interpretações sobre a "paz armada" que marcou, a partir do final da Segunda Guerra Mundial, a relação entre os EUA e a ex-URSS. O assunto tem sido até aqui alvo de extensa bibliografia que, contudo, costuma pecar exatamente pelo mesmo maniqueísmo que caracterizou o conflito entre as duas superpotências.

Darryl Jefferson grew up with the sole ambition of becoming a US Army soldier. Despite many people advising against it, he ultimately fulfilled his goal and enlisted in the Army while the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan were raging. He soon discovered that this experience was much different than he had anticipated, but in the process, he would learn and discover much about himself, the real world, and the human condition. This is his story.

Gettysburg explains the battle's place in the Civil War, why two vast armies clashed there, and how, in the century and a half since, it has been re-imagined, re-created, and re-enacted. It is the story of a battle which no one planned but which became the bloodiest encounter of the war, and one with dramatically high stakes. The postwar romanticization of Gettysburg as the place of "might-have-beens" is based on a kernel of reality.

Sadako Teiko Okuda was living in Osaki-shimo, an island off the mainland of Japan, when the bomb hit Hiroshima on the 6th of August 1945. Even sixty kilometers from the city, it was clear something horrific had happened. There was a blinding flash and the window next to Sadako smashed, a shard of glass leaving a painful burn on her neck. Soon, news came that her niece and nephew who lived in Hiroshima were missing. There was only one thing she could do—leave the relative safety of the island and set off into the city to find them.

This book is based on visitor descriptions of antebellum Mobile, Alabama's physical and social environment. Mobile's foundational era is a period in which the city transformed from a struggling colonial outpost into one of the nation's most significant economic powerhouses, largely owing to the cotton trade and the labor of enslaved people. On the eve of the Civil War, the Mobile ranked as the fourth most populous community in what would soon become the Confederacy, and within the Gulf Coast region, it stood second only to New Orleans in population, wealth, and influence.

Prizewinning historian Michael David-Fox traces the experiences of Smolensk residents between the interwar years and the end of World War II, a period during which the city and region passed from Stalinist rule to Nazi occupation and back. The result is a revelatory examination of choice and power under dueling forms of murderous totalitarianism. Exploring the life-and-death decisions of a fascinating cast of characters, David-Fox shows how deeply the Stalinist and Nazi regimes relied on the co-optation of average citizens motivated by greed and need, but always within the orbit of ideology.

With the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, her home became a central meeting place for Jewish refugees. German Margarete, born to a middle-class family, married the son of the Jewish philosopher Martin Buber.
