This is the most important post-9/11 analysis of war and it comes none too soon. Every politician should read this book before deciding on war. In the 20th century, 170 million human beings have died in wars. That makes 4630 casualties a day, 193 every hour, and 3 every minute. While 1035 billion dollars were spent on warfare in 2004, only 78.6 billion were spent on aid to developing countries.
