Much has been promised. Far less has actually worked in practice. In Lessons in Military Transformation, Robbin Laird cuts through the rhetoric and asks a harder question: how did transformation really happen inside squadrons, on flight decks, in command centers, and across allied coalitions when theory collided with operational friction and adaptive adversaries? Drawing ...
