More About This Title Another Bloody Century

English

Many nations, peoples, and special interest groups believe that violence will advance their cause. Warfare has changed greatly since World War II; it continued to change during the late 20th century, and this process is still accelerating. Political, technological, social, and religious forces are shaping the future of warfare, but most western armed forces have yet to evolve significantly from the Cold War era when they trained to resist a conventional invasion by the Warsaw Pact. America is now the only superpower, but its dominance is threatened by internal and external factors. The world's most hi-tech weaponry seems helpless in the face of determined guerrilla fighters not afraid to die for their beliefs. Professor Colin Gray has advised governments on both sides of the Atlantic, and in Another Bloody Century, he reveals what sort of conflicts will affect our world in the years to come.
