Modern warfare, intelligence and deterrence

"Much has been made of the limits of Western technology against today's low-tech insurgencies. This book shows, however, that, broadly speaking, defence technologies will continue to provide enormous advantages to advanced, Western armed forces.The book is organised into five parts: land and sea, air and space, the computer factor, intelligence and spycraft, and the road ahead, which examines the coming challenges for western armies, such as new wars against insurgents operating out of civilian areas. Comprising a selection of the best writing on the subject from The Economist, each part has an introduction linking the technological developments to political, diplomatic, business and other civilian matters"--
