Summary: A good basic book on the current state of war
Comment: This book, while detailed, offers a good, basic approach to the modern state of war. The best part of an essay approach tothis sunject is that rarely one person is the "guru" fo all things. The multiple points of view weave together to provide full understanding to a very complex subject.

Rating: 2
Summary: No easy read
Comment: A collection of essays covering all periods of modern war as well as essays on the development of the different aspects of war, ie Navy, Army, Air Force. Being a casual reader with just a light interest in history, the book was far to detailed and at times quite difficult to read. This book is not an introducton to the subject and so I would only recommend this book to someone with previous knowledge of the subject and a very keen interest.
