| Summary: | Understanding Land Warfare provides a thorough grounding in the vocabulary, concepts, issues and debates associated with modern land warfare. The book is a thematic, debate-driven analysis of what makes land warfare unique, how it interacts with the other environments, the key concepts that shape how it is executed, the trade-offs associated with its prosecution and the controversies that continue to surround its focus and development. Understanding Land Warfare contains several key themes, including the difficulty of conducting land warfare, the interplay between change and continuity, the growing importance of co-operation and the variety of ways in which land warfare is fought; the competing theoretical debates; the tensions and trade-offs. |
