About The Next World War

Peter Apps examines the changing landscape of global conflict and the effort to prevent another world war. Reporting and strategic analysis make the book a contemporary companion to the scenarios in this collection.

Why I include it

Contemporary reporting brings a different kind of pressure to the strategic scenarios in this guide. Peter Apps’s perspective on conflict and risk is a useful way to return those discussions to events and decisions in the world.
