The New Face of War

How War Will Be Fought in the 21st Century

En savoir plus sur le livre

Articulating a view that is increasingly common in the hallways of the Pentagon, if not in the streets of Baghdad or the mountains of the Afghan-Pakistan border region, Berkowitz (of the Hoover Institution at Stanford U.) argues that information technology has become the most important aspect of warfare and the deciding factor in military outcomes. Writing for a general audience, he explains how communication networks, global positioning satellites, rates-of-decision cycles, small special operations teams, and "cyberwar" are expected by some military thinkers to be important facets of military conflict in the present and near future.
