      Postmodern War: The New Politics of Conflict

      By
      No Customer Reviews
      From operation desert storm to the conflict in Bosnia, computerization and other scientific advances have brought about a revolution in warfare. This book shows how our high-tech age has spawned both increasingly powerful weapons and a rhetoric that disguises their apocalyptic potential in catch phrases like smart weapons, cyberwar, and bloodless combat. A skillful combination of trenchant cultural study, provocative illustrations, and engrossing military, technical, and historical analysis, Postmodern War sheds new light on the ways we conceptualize and conduct war today. This description may be from another edition of this product.
