Synopsis "Una Breve Historia de la Guerra (in Spanish)"

En esta oportuna adición a la serie de historia más vendida, la aclamada historiadora Gwynne Dyer cuenta la historia de la guerra desde sus orígenes prehistóricos, quizás prehumanos, hasta la era actual de los algoritmos y las bombas atómicas. Dyer narra la propagación de la guerra en las primeras ciudades del mundo; el aumento de la desigualdad y la tiranía a medida que crecen las sociedades humanas; la edad clásica milenaria del combate terminó con la carnicería de la Guerra de los Treinta Años; el breve intervalo de guerra "limitada" que siguió antes de las revoluciones populares del siglo XVIII marcó el comienzo de una era de guerra total, interrumpida abruptamente por Hiroshima. Los capítulos finales tratan sobre el precario equilibrio de los últimos 75 años, el período de paz más largo entre las principales potencias en la historia moderna, y las inminentes amenazas que plantean la proliferación nuclear, la rivalidad entre las superpotencias y el cambio climático. Este libro vívido y clarividente es una lectura vital para cualquiera que quiera comprender el papel de la guerra en la larga historia humana: por qué lo hacemos y cómo podemos detenerlo. In this timely addition to the best-selling history series, acclaimed historian Gwynne Dyer tells the story of war from its prehistoric, perhaps prehuman, origins to the current era of algorithms and atomic bombs. Dyer narrates the spread of the war in the first cities of the world; increasing inequality and tyranny as human societies grow; the millennial classical age of combat ended with the carnage of the Thirty Years' War; the brief interval of "limited" warfare that followed before the popular revolutions of the 18th century ushered in an era of all-out warfare, abruptly interrupted by Hiroshima. The final chapters address the precarious balance of the past 75 years, the longest period of peace between the major powers in modern history, and the looming threats posed by nuclear proliferation, superpower rivalry, and climate change. This vivid and clairvoyant book is vital reading for anyone who wants to understand the role of war in long human history - why we do it and how we can stop it.
