David Chandler, the head of the War Studies Department at Sandhurst, has gathered a team of widely respected military historians to describe the major battles.

Anthony R. Michaelis was a science journalist who coined the term 'pulsar' in the Daily Telegraph after speaking to Hewish and his assistant Jocelyn Bell about their discovery of pulsating stars, the story of which is recounted on page 158.
