War in Ukraine: Making Sense of a Senseless Conflict
Medea Benjamin and Nicolas J. S. Davies
Skillfully bringing together the historical record and current analysis, War In Ukraine looks at the events leading up to the conflict, surveys the different parties involved, and weighs the risks of escalation and opportunities for peace. For anyone who wants to get beneath the heavily propagandized media coverage to an understanding of a war with consequences that could prove cataclysmic, reading this timely book will be an urgent necessity.
“This careful, informed, judicious study is an invaluable guide t ounderstanding Russia's criminal invasion of Ukraine, and most crucially, how we can act to help bring this terrible tragedy to an end.”
–Noam Chomsky
