You don't need a book on economics to understand this. Just read some real, actual history books to see that after a war or revolution of any kind _nobody_ is better off. Start with the French revolution and just go over all of them in order. A hundred million people who died at the hands of the fascist or communist governments in the past century are, one would hope, a sufficient proof of that.
