With war raging at this very moment so close to us it is almost impossible not to
think about the consequences that warfare implies. Apart from the destruction of whole
cities, there is the far more important consequence which is the loss oh human life. Men,

personal library, and the World Wide Web. I expect to come upon the difficulty of not being
