About the book

War and Power by Phillips Payson O'Brien is a history book.

A bold, revisionist study which challenges modern misconceptions about the creation of power and the operations of war, from a Professor of Strategic Studies

War and power are two of the most-widely discussed issues in all of human history, and yet they are, time and again, misunderstood - often disastrously so.

Whilst we might think the outcome of war is determined by so-called 'Great Powers' who dominate their opponents with their impressive size and military prowess, the reality of modern conflict, as renowned strategic historian Professor Phillips Payson O'Brien demonstrates, is very different. He urges us instead to look for 'Full Spectrum Powers'.
