Revealing the overlooked influence of economics on World War II, this book challenges the conventional narrative that emphasizes military might alone. It highlights how three lesser-known economists significantly shaped Allied strategy, overshadowing even the Joint Chiefs. By exploring the intersections of statistics, finance, and military planning, it illustrates how economic factors dictated wartime decisions. This unique perspective sheds light on the profound impact of economic theory in shaping the conduct and outcome of one of history's most pivotal conflicts.
