Product Description

DAILY TELEGRAPH

'The sooner this excellent book is read by Western policy-makers, the better.'


Review

'The sooner this excellent book is read by Western policy-makers, the better.' (DAILY TELEGRAPH )

'[Colin Gray's] excellent book should be required reading for anyone interested in promoting our safetly and prosperity in the years ahead. It offers many wise words and thoughtful speculations about what the threats to the next few generations might be.' (Max Hastings THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH )

'Gray should be read, not least because of his own personal importance... This is the sort of advice he gives to the people that shape our world. His analyses become theirs. Read on and tremble.' (SCOTTISH LEGION NEWS )

'an important work that should be in every library of military affairs and international relations.' (Michael Howard TLS )

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent thesis on future warfare by an international expert, 3 Aug 2006
By W. Meddings (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
All in all an excellent book, well written and covering all of the major facts. For those who want to see beyond many of the current fads in military thinking - from 4GW to Effects Based and Network Centric Warfare - an excellent book. Coling Gray covers the basics of Clauswitzian Theory, and constantly brings us back to the fact that the future is not yet determined. We should, he argues, prepare for the unexpected, whilst accepting that history does provide us the best tools to analyse what we see today. Colin Gray does have a tendancy to use long words when short ones would do the job, but this does not detract from the book.

For those soon to attend their MA(C) module (you know who you are if you know what I'm talking about!) then it should be recommended reading. Covers some of the syllabus and much more beyond.
