The Impenetrable Fog of War: Reflections on Modern Warfare and Strategic Surprise: Praeger Security International

Editat de Patrick M. Cronin
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 29 iul 2008 – vârsta până la 17 ani
Current trends suggest that the fog of war continues to make strategy an opaque enterprise notwithstanding enormous U.S. investments in high-tech weapons, intelligence capabilities, and homeland defense. This edited volume includes essays originally presented at the IISS Global Strategic Review, which was held in Geneva on September 7-9, 2007.
