This forty-four-day war resulted in a decisive military victory for Azerbaijan. Armenia was outfought, outnumbered, and outspent and lost even though they controlled the high ground in a mountainous region. The fact that Azerbaijan won the war is not extraordinary. What is exceptional is that this was the first modern war primarily decided by unmanned weapons.

Menachem Begin: Portrait of a Leader – A Biography is the first complete biography of Menachem Begin, the man who always thought and spoke in terms of "we" rather than "I", the man who thought of himself as a simple Jew and accompanied the Jewish People on its path from the Holocaust to rebirth as a sovereign nation.

In both we eagerly entered into battle without a clear picture of our final goal and what exactly we wished to achieve. Most significantly, the extensive evidence examined here ...

The Cynefin framework provides a method to analyze systems and can help prevent the application of the same decision-making process to different situations. According to the framework, disorder is the condition where one is unaware of a system’s domain. The domains, or quadrants, are identified as chaotic, complex, complicated, and obvious. As one comes to identify the dominant system, the framework offers a mental tool to guide decision-making. It also helps illuminate the impact if the system bridges the gap between one of the other domains. For example, obvious or complex systems could...

This book argues that era is ending. Europe’s New Military-Industrial Complex is a sweeping, deeply researched investigation into the largest military-industrial transformation ...

The state monopoly on violence is not a historical law; it is a three-hundred-year anomaly. In 'Dogs of War', analyst Nathan Geary strips away the romanticism of the mercenary and the sensationalism of the 'private army' to reveal the cold, industrial logic of the market for force. From the granular service-level agreements of the Italian condottieri and the dividend-driven sieges of the East India Company to the sophisticated 'Defense as a Service' models of Blackwater and Wagner Group, Geary argues that warfare has returned to its historical default: a tradable, liquid commodity. Moving ...

This book is the first comprehensive analysis of that negotiation — told not through the lens of traditional diplomatic history, but through the framework that Trump himself used to understand and execute it: The Art of the Deal. Those principles, applied to a geopolitical context with nuclear-armed implications, produced what this book calls War as Deal-Closing: a methodology in which military force is not the endpoint of strategy but the punctuation in a negotiation — deployed not to destroy the adversary but to create the conditions under which a favorable agreement becomes possible....
