"As longtime head of French intelligence, Count de Marenches served as the confidant and adviser to the world's most powerful men. Charles de Gaulle, Henry Kissinger, and Ronald Reagan are among the statesmen, princes, and presidents from around the globe who sought and still seek his advice. Now, in this startling book, he describes his life in global intelligence from World War II to the present - including his reflections on world leaders from Churchill to Gorbachev - and delivers a chilling "state of the world" message." "De Marenches, together with foreign affairs commentator David A. Andelman, holds that we have passed through three world wars in this century - the First and Second World Wars and the Cold War - only to find ourselves now engaged in the deadliest conflict of all. The Fourth World War is pitting North against South, nations with continuous traditions against those with a history of cultural, religious, and military upheaval. It is a war waged by terrorist networks and drug cartels unassailable through conventional strategies. Intelligence, the authors hold, will be the crucial weapon in this Fourth World War, in which all parties will be forced to fight by terrorist rules." "Regarded as one of the great geopolitical seers of our time, Count de Marenches reveals in The Fourth World War his own prominent yet covert role in world politics, including his impact on American foreign policy, and details the inner workings of the world's most powerful intelligence agencies. The Fourth World War is a compelling memoir and a spellbinding warning for our times."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

James Joll's study is not simply another narrative, retracing the powder trail that was finally ignited at Sarajevo. It is an ambitious and wide-ranging analysis of the historical forces at work in the Europe of 1914, and the very different ways in which historians have subsequently attempted to understand them. The importance of the theme, the breadth and sympathy of James Joll's scholarship, and the clarity of his exposition, have all contributed to the spectacular success of the book since its first appearance in 1984. Revised by Gordon Martel, this new 3rd edition accommodates recent research and an expanded further reading section.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Discover the game-changing theory of the cycles of history and what past generations can teach us about living through times of upheaval—with deep insights into the roles that Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials have to play—now with a new preface by Neil Howe. First comes a High, a period of confident expansion. Next comes an Awakening, a time of spiritual exploration and rebellion. Then comes an Unraveling, in which individualism triumphs over crumbling institutions. Last comes a Crisis—the Fourth Turning—when society passes through a great and perilous gate in history. William Strauss and Neil Howe will change the way you see the world—and your place in it. With blazing originality, The Fourth Turning illuminates the past, explains the present, and reimagines the future. Most remarkably, it offers an utterly persuasive prophecy about how America’s past will predict what comes next. Strauss and Howe base this vision on a provocative theory of American history. The authors look back five hundred years and uncover a distinct pattern: Modern history moves in cycles, each one lasting about the length of a long human life, each composed of four twenty-year eras—or “turnings”—that comprise history’s seasonal rhythm of growth, maturation, entropy, and rebirth. Illustrating this cycle through a brilliant analysis of the post–World War II period, The Fourth Turning offers bold predictions about how all of us can prepare, individually and collectively, for this rendezvous with destiny.

The very scale of the 1939-45 war has often tempted historians to study particular campaigns at the expense of the wider panorama. In this readable and richly detailed history of the conflict, the Belgian scholar Ernest Mandel (author of the acclaimed Late Capitalism) outlines his view that the war was in fact a combination of several distinct struggles and a battle between rival imperialisms for world hegemony. In concise chapters, Mandel examines the role played by technology, science, logistics, weapons and propaganda. Throughout, he weaves a consideration of the military strategy of the opposing states into his analytical narrative of the war and its results.
