common logic driving vainglorious monarchs  dictators  mobs  pilots  football hooligans 
ancient peoples and fanatics. Distilling decades of economics  political science  psychology
and real-world interventions  and through his time studying Columbia  Chicago  Liberia and
Northern Ireland  Christopher Blattman lifts the lid on the underlying forces governing war and
peace. Why did Russia attack Ukraine? Will China invade Taiwan and launch WWIII? And what can
any of us do about it? 'Captivating and intelligent' Tim Harford 'Wise  intriguing
