Why contemporary transformations of the military based on networked operations will fail.
The driving concept behind the transformation of Western armed forces in the 21st century has been a fully integrated information network that will supposedly create a "decisive" advantage in fighting and other military actions. This book argues that such operations offer not a new theory of war but a series of largely untested assumptions.Why contemporary transformations of the military based on networked operations will fail
"Brilliant insights into the development of Networked Operations." Rob Huebert, Centre for Military and Strategic Studies, University of Calgary "This book examines a number of concepts that have been discussed and debated in the defence community over the past decade, but not necessarily explained, with a very good discussion of the theoretical and practical origins of these concepts and useful illustrations from contemporary operations."
