The Second World War

by Sir Winston S. Churchill

Let me give you this example. One of the greatest books is Churchill's book about the history of the Second World War. He starts in his book describing that in the old times when a war is over, the great kings, they gather together--and most of them are relatives--and they discuss what should be done to create peace and they come to an agreement.

Vladimir Vapnik mentions Churchill's book about the history of the Second World War to draw a parallel between the handling of WWI vs WWII peace treaties and the current state of machine learning research (mathematicians vs computer scientists).
