Summary

Over twenty two centuries ago, the Greek general Pyrrhus questioned the real gains of military victory. Today we might reflect on the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan in much the same way. War is not only cruel but capricious; its outcomes are often bitter and frustrating, even for the winning side.

Strategy by Tom Kane

"Strategic thought moves strategic practiceTom Kane's outstanding book explains the enduring relevance of strategic ideas to our human security condition."
Colin Gray, University of Reading

"A uniquely accessible and profound examination of the foundations of contemporary strategic thought. This book should be the starting point for anyone who wishes to understand the theory of war. A major intellectual achievement."
Eric Grove, Liverpool Hope University

"Thoughtful, engaging, and even entertaining, this first-rate book does far more than just present readers with a list of strategic thinkers and their basic ideas – it explains, clearly and precisely, why strategy matters. Readers will gain a deeper appreciation of how the practice of strategy influences the fate of states, and how strategic failure may carry a terrible price."
Dale Walton, Lindenwood University

Dr. Thomas M. Kane is Director of the Centre for Security Studies at the University of Hull.
