The Bomber Mafia by Malcolm Gladwell (Penguin Press UK)
Malcolm Gladwell as a brilliant storyteller offers a fresh, innovative approach to WW2 history.
Bomber mafia as he calls it, group of renegade pilots and others, such as scientists and politicians, have an idea to make a bombing so accurate that all wars could be fought entirely from the air.
Gladwell asks us what is a price of progress in a thought and in a technology and where can obsession leads us. Is it just a way to destruction or redemption?
Interesting and compelling read, especially for all history lovers.
4/5
