<br/><br/> Part 1 deals with the evolution of military strategy and doctrine, from the Napoleonic Wars to today. Part 2 examines warfare at the end of this century. Examples of the development of revolutionary warfare in Asia from Mao to Giap are used to underscore the cultural and situational influences on doctrines of revolutionary war. Part 3 looks at the future of conflict in the twenty-first century, covering issues such as: the impact of computers on warfare; the effect of media coverage on strategy; space policy; arms control; political systems and their relationship to the probability of war; and the prospects of stealth technology.
