About this event

Dr. Michael Vickers talks with Gen. David Petraeus about his newly released book, "Conflict: The Evolution of Warfare from 1945 to Ukraine"

Please join The OSS Society for the first installment in its 2024 "Oh So Social" Conversation Series on February 28, 2024, when Dr. Mike Vickers will interview Gen. David Petraeus, USA (Ret.) about his new book, Conflict: The Evolution of Warfare from 1945 to Ukraine.

Co-written with Andrew Roberts, this book explores "over 70 years of conflict, drawing significant lessons and insights from their fresh analysis of the past. Drawing on their different perspectives and areas of expertise, Petraeus and Roberts show how often critical mistakes have been repeated time and again, and the challenge, for statesmen and generals alike, of learning to adapt to various new weapon systems, theories and strategies."

"Not since Clausewitz’ On War has a book provided so much insight into the nature of warfare. Deeply researched, brilliantly constructed and thoroughly entertaining, Conflict gets to the heart of why some nations win and others lose during war. Conflict could only have been written through the unique collaboration of General Dave Petraeus and Lord (Andrew) Roberts. It is a book that will shape the thinking of policy makers and military strategists for generations to come." —Admiral William H. McRaven, USN (Ret.)
