This range has great value, but also poses problems, notably by diluting the focus on war of a certain type, and by exacerbating a lack of precision in definition and analysis. \u003ci\u003eThe Cold War: A Military Histor\u003c\/i\u003ey is the first survey of the period to focus on the diplomatic and military confrontation and conflict. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJeremy Black begins his overview in 1917 and covers the 'long Cold War', from the 7th November Revolution to the ongoing repercussions and reverberations of the conflict today. The book is forward-looking as well as retrospective, not least in encouraging us to reflect on how much the character of the present world owes to the Cold War. The result is a detailed survey that will be invaluable to students and scholars of military and international history.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJeremy Black\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of history at the University of Exeter, UK and a Senior Fellow of the Foreign Policy Research Institute, USA.
