What is War? is a book designed
to offer a simple answer to all the questions kids might ask when hearing about
war and conflict.
What are the key points between different types of conflict? Is there such a
thing as a just war? What are the tools used to wage war, from weapons to
propaganda? How can we end wars, and who are the real winners and losers? This book tells the reader through clear
explanations punctuated by historical and contemporary examples what war is and
how it can be prevented. It is part of a series of books for children designed
to provide them with all the information they need to understand the complex
world we live in.
