The book was originally published in 1939, just before the outbreak of World War II, and explores the causes and effects of war, as well as the ethical and moral dilemmas that arise from it.Curtiss starts by examining the nature of war and the reasons why people engage in it. She then goes on to explore the different types of wars, including defensive wars, offensive wars, and wars of conquest. She also looks at the role of nationalism, patriotism, and propaganda in the lead-up to war.The book also discusses the impact of war on society and individuals, including the physical and psychological toll it takes on soldiers and civilians alike. Curtiss examines the ethics of war, including the concept of a ""just war"" and the use of violence as a means to an end.Throughout the book, Curtiss draws on examples from history and literature to illustrate her points. She also includes quotes from philosophers, politicians, and military leaders to provide a range of perspectives on war and its effects.Overall, The Philosophy of War 1939 is a thought-provoking exploration of the complex and often controversial topic of war.
