Study War No More is a science fiction anthology edited by science fiction author and Vietnam War veteran Joe Haldeman. All of the short stories concern war, and were previously published in other publications. The title is derived from a line in the traditional gospel song "Down by the Riverside", "I ain't go study war no more". It was published by St. Martin's Press in 1977, and reprinted by Avon Books in 1978. It has been published in the U.K, and translated into German and French.
