Tungkol sa ebook na ito

""Scorched Earth"" examines the long history of deliberately destroying resources and infrastructure in warfare, a tactic employed from ancient times to modern conflicts.
The book argues that this seemingly barbaric strategy has often been a decisive element in military history, highlighting the tension between achieving victory and the moral consequences of widespread destruction.
One intriguing insight is how these tactics, while intended to weaken an enemy, frequently result in long-term environmental damage and severe impacts on civilian populations.

The book progresses chronologically, first laying a historical foundation from ancient times through the early modern era, then analyzing the escalation of these scorched earth tactics in the 20th century, including detailed analyses of the Eastern Front during World War II and various counterinsurgency campaigns.

Finally, this military history explores the ethical, legal, and long-term consequences, offering a balanced understanding of the motivations and results of resource destruction.
The value of this approach lies in its comprehensive analysis across different periods and regions, revealing recurring patterns of resource destruction.
