Review

'This is a book that students of international relations at all levels will want to consider adding to their shelves. The authors provide an excellent synthesis of what quantitative research - particularly the Correlates of War Project - has learned. Indeed, anyone who wonders at the contribution of the scientific study of war to international relations will benefit from reading Nations at War.' Political Science Quarterly

Book Description

Nations at War provides a scientifically-derived explanation of war. It develops this explanation by reviewing data-based studies of international conflict, analysing war from the fifteenth to the twentieth centuries, and identifies factors associated with both the onset and destructiveness of these conflicts.
