A Cultural History of Peace presents an authoritative survey from ancient times to the present. The set of six volumes covers a span of 2500 years, tracing how different cultures and societies have thought about, struggled for, developed and sustained peace in different ways and at different times.

1. A Cultural History of Peace in Antiquity (500 BCE - 800 CE)
2. A Cultural History of Peace in the Medieval Age (800 - 1450)
3. A Cultural History of Peace in the Renaissance (1450 - 1648)
4. A Cultural History of Peace in the Age of Enlightenment (1648 - 1815)
5. A Cultural History of Peace in the Age of Empire (1815 - 1920)
6. A Cultural History of Peace in the Modern Age (1920 - present)

Each volume discusses the same themes in its chapters:

1. Definitions of Peace
2. Human Nature, Peace and War
3. Peace, War and Gender
4. Peace, Pacifism and Religion
5. Representations of Peace
6. Peace as Integration
7. Peace Movements
8. Peace, Security and Deterrence

This structure offers readers a broad overview of a period within each volume or the opportunity to follow a theme through history by reading the relevant chapter across volumes.

Generously illustrated, the full six-volume set combines to present the most authoritative and comprehensive survey available on peace in history.
