{"product_id":"9781591144823","title":"Rethinking the Principles of War","description":"\u003cbr\u003eThis work features the fresh thinking of twenty-eight leading authors from a variety of military and national security disciplines. Following an introduction by Lt. Gen. James Dubik, Commander I Corps, U.S. Army, the anthology first considers the general question of whether there is a distinctly American way of war. Dr. Colin Gray's opening essay \"The American Way of War: Critique and Implications\" provides a state of the question perspective. Sections on operational art, with writers addressing the issues in both conventional and small wars; stability and reconstruction; and intelligence complete the volume. Among the well-known contributors are Robert Scales, Mary Kaldor, Ralph Peters, Jon Sumida, Grant Hammond, Milan Vego, and T.X. Hammes. The anthology is part of a larger \u003ci\u003eRethinking the Principles\u003c\/i\u003e project, sponsored by the Office of Force Transformation and the U.S. Navy to examine approaches to the future of warfare. Footnotes, index, and a bibliographic essay make the work a useful tool for students of war and general readers alike.","brand":"Naval Institute Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47031062233328,"sku":"9781591144823","price":46.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781591144823_p0.jpg?v=1769901153","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781591144823","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
