Synopsis
Excerpt from A Mechanistic View of War and Peace
As surgeon in charge of the Lakeside Unit of Western Reserve University in the service of the American Ambulance at neuilly-sur-seine I had the opportunity of obtaining the viewpoints of men who had participated in the present combat.
Visiting the front, I observed the behavior of men in the act of making war. I studied non-combat ants at home, refugees, and prisoners of war, and sought similar information from reliable sources as to other nations at war.
