Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book examines the close relationship between science and the Great War, revealing the surprising extent to which science played a pivotal role in the conflict. The author argues that the British government's neglect of science and its over-reliance on the 'advocate' sp…irit, which prioritizes debate over discovery, led to several critical failures. Drawing on revealing examples, the author demonstrates how these failures, including the provision of war materials to Germany, directly impacted the course of the war. The book also explores the broader ethical implications of scientific advancements, considering the tension between scientific progress and its potential for destructive uses. Ultimately, this insightful analysis emphasizes the crucial role of science in shaping historical events and highlights the need for a more informed and balanced approach to its application in the future.
