About this product

Product Information

A renowned philosopher challenges long-held views on just wars, ethical conduct during war, why wars occur, how they alter people and societies, and more For residents of the twenty-first century, a vision of a future without warfare is almost inconceivable. Though wars are terrible and destructive, they also seem unavoidable. In this original and deeply considered book, A. C. Grayling examines, tests, and challenges the concept of war. He proposes that a deeper, more accurate understanding of war may enable us to reduce its frequency, mitigate its horrors, and lessen the burden of its consequences. Grayling explores the long, tragic history of war and how warfare has changed in response to technological advances. He probes much-debated theories concerning the causes of war and considers positive changes that may result from war. How might these results be achieved without violence? In a profoundly wise conclusion, the author envisions "just war theory" in new moral terms, taking into account the lessons of World War II and the Holocaust and laying down ethical principles for going to war and for conduct during war.

Reviews
"Exceptionally incisive on war and peace . . .  As a former professional soldier, and no stranger to conflict, I regret not having had access to [ War ] when it mattered."--Milos Stankovic, Spectator, "A brisk and sweeping survey... It is written under the shadow of the extreme mechanisation of war-fighting and the ethical conundrums this poses. Grayling speaks primarily to the citizen, not the solider, and his strength is in his conceptual clarity."--Mark Mazower, Financial Times, "Exceptionally incisive on war and peace . . . As a former professional soldier, and no stranger to conflict, I regret not having had access to [ War ] when it mattered."--Milos Stankovic, Spectator

Hey there, Yes, there would have been holidays in the transit interim as well as the postal service contending with the typical volume at that time. Furthermore, the shipping out time accords with the shipping times noted in the listing, which is in business days. So, the business days also would have been disrupted with holidays and the package was delivered within the previously allotted time as listed. I did not ship it later than designated as per the ad.
