Writing at the time of Napoleon's greatest campaigns, Prussian soldier and writer Carl von Clausewitz created this landmark treatise on the art of warfare, which presented war as part of a coherent system of political thought.In line with Napoleon's own military actions, he illustrated the need to annihilate the enemy and make a strong display of one's power in an 'absolute war' without compromise. But he was also careful to distinguish between war and politics, arguing that war could only be justified when debate was no longer adequate, and that if undertaken, its aim should ultimately be to improve the wellbeing of the nation.

Hes a detective in his own right. And he has one, ultimate and pressing question to answer: How did this person die? Unnatural Causes is an unputdownable record of an extraordinary life, a unique insight into a remarkable profession, and above all a powerful and reassuring testament to lives cut short. __________ Dr Shepherd has faced serial killers, natural disaster, perfect murders and freak accidents, all in the pursuit of the truth. And while hes been involved in some of the most high-profile cases of recent times, its often the less well-known encounters that prove the most perplexing, intriguing and even bizarre. In or out of the public eye, his evidence has put killers behind bars, freed the innocent and turned open-and-shut cases on their heads. But a life in death, bearing witness to some of humanitys darkest corners, exacts a price and Shepherd doesnt flinch from counting the cost to him and his family. The dead do not hide the truth and they never lie. Through me the dead can speak . . . Puts the reader at his elbow as he wields the scalpel Guardian Fascinating, gruesome yet engrossing Richard and Judy, Daily Express Heart-wrenchingly honest Professor Sue Black, author of All That Remains Fascinating, insightful, candid, compassionate Observer
