Asymmetries of Conflict Résumé

Asymmetries of Conflict: War Without Death John Leech

Decisions about defence and security are becoming increasingly open to public influence. This book therefore aims to give both the voter and the decision maker a new vision of how to manage crises and avert hostilities with non-traditional means.
