'It is always enjoyable to listen to Gwyn Prins. He is
entertaining, fluent in delivery and invariably demonstrates a very
broad knowledge of the world and of the various intellectual
interpretations that might be deduced from analysing it. This
publication is a good opportunity to get comprehensively to grips
with his thinking....it does not disappoint in that sense.' - The
Naval Review
'Prins has been making eminent sense of security issues for more
than a decade ... if you are looking for something more rigorous,
judicious and academic, then try The Heart of War.' - Dominick
Donald, The Guardian
'The book offers several insights into the moral and political
dilemmas faced by armed forces in the contemporary world.' -
Political Studies Review
'Nicely constructed and provides a coherent argument ... Prins
argues convincingly.' - International Affairs
