Military Persuasion addresses an important and relevant topic for the understanding of military policyCimbala is very well plugged in to the ongoing debates around the community dealing with defense issues, and he has clearly done extensive research for this study. As with his previous work, this book is subtle and provocative, finding the complexities and nuances that others might have missed.”
