Sobre este artículo
New York, NY: Hill and Wang, 1987 Hill and Wang, New York. 1987. Hardcover. Stated First Edition. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: Near Fine; light suntoning to upper edges of boards. DJ: Near Fine; NOT Price Clipped ($17.95); light bumping to head and tail; light rubbing to panels. Gray paper over boards with black cloth overlay on the spine; bright silver lettering on the spine. 179 pp 8vo. It is estimated that future conventional wars will be 600% more destructive and intense than WWII, raising the question whether most soldiers will be able to remain sane enough to fight. The author traces the history of madness in war and warns that we may be reaching the limits of our human capacities. He reveals startling new information about the behavior of men in combat and explores its implications for the modern battlefield. A clean very presentable copy.

Sobre Walnut Valley Books/Books by White
Walnut Valley Books is a small independent home-based business with the bulk of my holdings being of an American military nature covering everything from the Revolutionary War to the current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. I also have holdings of books on the Middle East, the southwestern United States (New Mexico especially, Kansas related titles, Oklahoma related titles, and other regionally specialized books. All of my holdings are hand-selected to be good quality books of interest to the reader, historian, or the collector. In addition to the above, you will also find a wide range of other topics such as Medical, US History, autobiographical, biographical, sports, women's studies, and many other eclectic topics.
