Descripción del artículo del vendedor

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Historians estimate that in the last 3,400 years of recorded history, humanity has known only 268 years withoutwar - roughly 8 percent of the time. Has This World Ever Known Peace takes that staggering statistic andturns it into a question worth sitting with: is conflict simply what we are, or is it something we have chosen, again and again, when better paths were available This sweeping work of narrative non-fiction moves across 3,400 years of human conflict, from the earliestrecorded wars in ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt through the empires of Rome, Persia, and China, into thereligious wars of the medieval world, the colonial conquests that reshaped continents, the industrial-scaleslaughter of the twentieth century, and the conflicts, insurgencies, and civil wars still unfolding today.Structured across eighteen chapters and three distinct parts, the book does not simply catalogue famous battles.It deliberately seeks out the forgotten conflicts - the wars history textbooks skipped, the civilian populationswhose suffering rarely made it into official records, and the quieter human cost that sits behind every date anddeath toll.Along the way, Winston Phillips asks harder questions than 'what happened.' Why does war keep repeatingacross every era, culture, and technology level What psychological and social forces make organised violence sopersistently attractive to leaders and nations And what would it actually take - psychologically, politically, culturally - for humanity to break a 3,400-year pattern Written in an accessible, humane, and genuinely thought-provoking style, this is not a dry military chronicle. Itis a book for readers of popular history, geopolitics, and human nature alike - anyone who has ever looked atthe news and wondered whether things have always been this way, and whether they could ever be different.Ambitious in scope and deeply human in focus, Has This World Ever Known Peace is ultimately less a historyof war than a case for what peace would actually require. This is an original work of narrative non-fiction by Winston Phillips. All content, writing, and storytelling are entirely the author's own original creation, (c) 2026 Winston Phillips, London, England. All rights reserved. CONTENT ADVISORYDiscusses war, mass violence, genocide, colonial conquest, and historical civilian casualties across multiple eras.Handled with historical context and a humane, non-graphic tone, but readers sensitive to depictions of war andatrocity should be aware of the subject matter throughout.…
