N2  - Strongly argued critique of the entire basis on which the value of network centric warfare has been accepted in military circles. Suggests that "the problematic business analogy and the use of a discredited view of knowledge and knowledge acquisition mean that the NCW thesis simultaneously overstates the promise of information and communications technology, while being incapable of adequately realizing the great potential the technology does offer". Furthermore the authors express concern that this example may indicate a crisis that extends throughout contemporary military theory
