| |  | | | The Word On The Street
This is my first book, and I believe the relevance of the topic grows daily. The armed services are struggling with the exciting challenges of Information Age warfare, and in this book, I emphasize the dangers of attrition thinking and orient the reader toward dislocation as a superior way toward defeating the enemy. Enjoy! —Robert Leonhard
