This wide-ranging book discusses everything from the modern infantry's camping gear to defense industry marketing schemes, but never strays not even close to its central focus on cutting-edge warfare. Despite every certainly one of the impressive advantages these gadgets offer, the fight still comes down towards the level of the individual soldier, as outlined by James Dunnigan (a Gulf War analyst for NBC). Nothing can replace training and discipline. On the battlefields in the next century, only high-quality troops will likely be able to maintain their high-tech weapons in a proper state of repair, aside from know how to use them.

Author of the much-referenced Making War, Dunnigan has long had the ear with the CIA, the State Department, the Army War College and other key institutions. In recent years, moreover, he is becoming a familiar figure on TV, analyzing military developments round the world for that three major networks and CNN. So this engaging new work, by which Dunnigan explores "the new revolution in warfare," featuring computers and robots, will be received with utmost seriousness?and is more likely to spark significant controversy within hallowed halls. Few will argue with Dunnigan's contention that this defense budget has been greatly abused by politicians, or the face of future warfare will "seem almost as being a parody of a science fiction movie." But the author's prescription for the U.S. military, based for the realities and potentials of new means of war, will do to make the top brass blanch: cutting troop strength by 300,000 and achieving rid of major weapon systems, like the B-1 bomber, are simply 2 of his many radical suggestions. For perspective, Dunnigan provides a marvelously entertaining view with the good reputation for weaponry. His engaging and daring analytic prospectus should fascinate armchair warriors too as their professional counterparts.
