Sinopse
"

A book about how wrong decisions can lead to serious consequences.

In The March of Folly , two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Barbara W. Tuchman addresses one of the greatest human paradoxes: the insistence of governments on adopting policies that are contrary to their own interests.

In a fluid and engaging text, the author highlights four historical conflicts in which misguided actions had disastrous consequences for thousands of people: the Trojan War, the Protestant Reformation, the independence of the United States, and the Vietnam War. These episodes demonstrate the impotence of reason in the face of greed and individual interests. A fundamental read in an age when the march of folly seems to accelerate with each passing day.
