* the legacy of the Treaty of Versailles
* Hitlers foreign policy
* Appeasement
* AJP Taylor and the Russians

"Review of the First Edition."
"A valuable, stimulating and enjoyable book. It combines the essence of Taylor's views, considered judgement upon them, plus a useful summary of recent research on the subject...the contributions taken as an entity constitute a masterly overview and review of the major issues of the interwar period and of the origins of the Second World War."
