O voine - Karl Klauzevits

For two rather turbulent militarily recent centuries, the surname "Clausewitz" has long been moved into the category of names almost household names, and this, probably, best and sums up his scientific activities. Clausewitz's works represent almost a unique attempt on the basis of actual and personal experience of politicized material to create a dry military-historical, rational and devoid of political mythology (as far as it is at all perhaps) review. "On War" is undoubtedly a brilliant experience of current-event analytics, (almost) devoid of magic names and slogans, written without the typical mistakes and prejudice of an eyewitness. The reader's trial presents selected chapters from the work "On War", accompanied by preface and exhaustive comments.
