This book, 'History of War', offers a concise view of the evolution of warfare in the West. Written by a team of military historians, it analyzes from the tactics of ancient Greece and Rome to modern wars, highlighting the combination of technique, discipline, and aggressive military tradition that has characterized the West. It examines the Western capacity to adapt to challenges and use economic resources instead of humans to achieve success, as well as the military effectiveness of its adversaries and the areas in which the Western military advantage has been questioned.
Noel Geoffrey Parker is an English historian specialising in the history of Western Europe, Spain, and warfare during the early modern era. His best-known book is The Military Revolution: Military Innovation and the Rise of the West, 1500–1800, first published by Cambridge University Press in 1988.
