Summary
While irregular warfare has emerged as the most prevalent form of warfare in the 21st century, studying the spectrum of conflict and how principles of war apply across that spectrum, requires an unconventional approach. In this work, the author challenges military leaders to dispense with clichés and get back to basics: to establish attainable goals, tied to achievable tasks and to obtainable resources, to ensure a victorious outcome.
