Conflict and Creation delves into the paradox of how wars, often seen as destructive forces, have also been catalysts for technological and scientific advancements. From the development of radar during World War II to the invention of the jet engine and advancements in medicine, this book traces how necessity during wartime has led to innovations that reshaped industries and society.

The book examines key historical moments where warfare has driven technological leaps, revealing how military needs spurred innovations that found their way into civilian life. Conflict and Creation explores both the dark and bright sides of these advancements, showing how wartime inventions have not only altered the course of history but also opened new possibilities for human progress in peacetime.
