World in the Balance
ISBN: 9780874512175 / Angielski / Miękka / 1981 / 185 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The purpose of Weinberg's text is to suggest a way in which the dramatic events of World War II may be seen. Weinberg argues that the war must be seen as a whole, and that the presentation of it in discrete segments covering the European and Pacific portions separately distorts reality and obscures important aspects of the war on both sides of the world. In addition, any understanding of the great struggle requires a mental self-liberation from the certain knowledge of its outcome. In desperate struggles millions fought and died, hopeful or fearful--or both--but without awareness of the end.

ISBN: 9780521566261 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Far more than a conflict of imperial aggression, World War II was about "blood and soil," a fight to determine who would control the earth's resources and which races would be exterminated because they were deemed inferior or undesirable. This collection of essays, many never before published in English, illuminates the nature of the Nazi system and its impact on Germany and the world.
