Command: The Politics of Military Operations

Description

From publisher:

More than two decades into the twenty-first century, it has become clear that conflicts have become several orders of magnitude more complex than they were as recently as the Second World War. Today, success in managing these conflicts across the globe requires leaders who can accomplish their objectives and prevail not only on land, in the sea and in the air, but also in cyberspace and in outer space. More importantly perhaps, those in power must practise the art of politics when dealing with superiors, subordinates, colleagues in other branches of service, allies in multinational coalitions, international organizations, contractors and private forces, local governments and Indigenous populations.
