Summary, etc. Sets out to provide an initial assessment of the war in Afghanistan of 2001-2002 between coalition forces (especially US and UK) and the Taliban. Considers lessons to be drawn in terms of fighting, intelligence, and force transformation. Notes that the lessons are also being learnt by opponents of the coalition, notably Al Qaeda, and that in asymmetric warfare it is not easy to be certain when conflict has finished nor that there is a clear winner.
