John W. Dower is an American historian with profound knowledge on Japanese-American relations in war and peace. This book is a comparative study of wars: the Pearl Harbor attack; the atomic bombing on Hiroshima; the September 11 attacks; the Iraq War. All of these wars involved the U.S. While the wars took place at different times in contemporary American history, Dower tries to explain what “Cultures of War” is. Using the comparative method of study, he approaches the heart of the universality of wars.
