Read by the author, Nicholas Wright

From a leading neuroscientist and advisor to the Pentagon, discover the new science behind warfare.

Why did France surrender to the Nazis despite having a superior army? How has Ukraine stood firm against Russia? How do you know if you can trust an ally? How can we make clearer decisions under pressure? In Warhead, Nicholas Wright delves into our brains to find out why humans fight, lose and win wars.

Drawing upon his extensive expertise in neuroscience, combined with his strategic advisory role at the Pentagon, Wright reveals that, whether we like it or not, our brains are wired for conflict and survival. In an increasingly dangerous world, our success and our values depend on recognizing this and, if necessary, taking advantage of it.

Through cutting-edge research and by exploring notable conflicts from history, Warhead examines why global tensions are rising, from Taiwan to Ukraine, and asks how to defuse them. From the office to the battlefield, it is essential for understanding a more divided world.
