Résumé ou extrait

• Présentation de l'éditeur : "The war effort wasn't confined to the battlefield: chemists and engineers, doctors, code-breakers and scientists all played vital parts in labs, surgeries and back rooms. Out of their contribution came dramatic developments in aviation, gunnery, intelligence, medicine and psychology, with the development of the tank and the dreadful advances of chemical warfare. Support from the home front was essential to success on the fighting front in what was to be the first 'total war.' The work of some of the greatest artists, writers and film-makers of the time was crucial in controlling the flow of information at home and managing successful propaganda campaigns against the enemy."
