"This edited collection exhibits research that considers economic, educational, technological, and strategic planning that contributed to nations' involvement in and the lasting impact of engagement in World War II. Written by historians and social scientists from around the world, each chapter offers an insight into the experiences and implications of those involved in the war - as leaders, civilians, politicians - and the continued strains resulting from diplomatic relationships and the casualties on and off the battlefield. The Second World War devastated the world - not equally in all areas or nations, but it altered the course of human history. These works contribute to the ability to make sense of this brutal war and in doing so, offer readers an opportunity to learn about some lesser-understood implications and results of the Second World War"--
