They reflect three disparate themes in Professor Murray's work: his deep fascination with history and those who have acted in the past; his fascination with the similarities in human behavior between the past and the present; and his belief that the study of military and strategic history can be of real use to those who will confront the daunting problems of war and peace in the twenty-first century. The first group of essays addresses the relevance of history to an understanding of the present and to an understanding of the possibilities of the future. The second addresses the possible direct uses of history to think through the problems involved in the creation of effective military institutions. The final group represents historical case studies that serve to illuminate the present. 606 $aMilitary art and science$xHistory 606 $aWar 606 $aStrategy 606 $aMilitary policy 606 $aMilitary readiness 606 $aInternational relations 615 0$aMilitary art and science$xHistory. 615 0$aWar. 615 0$aStrategy. 615 0$aMilitary policy. 615 0$aMilitary readiness. 615 0$aInternational relations. 676 $a355.02 686 $aHIS027000$2bisacsh 700 $aMurray$b Williamson$0675617 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808345303321 996 $aWar, strategy, and military effectiveness$94028566 997 $aUNINA
