In Beyond Shock and Awe, media commentator Eric Haney—a founding member of Delta Force and author of Inside Delta Force—along with other noted military analysts and award-nominated editor Brian M. Thomsen, examines how our military must evolve to face changing times, technology, and adversaries. From limited wars to possible large scale invasions of Syria or Iran—or a major military stand-down with North Korea—Beyond Shock and Awe is a fresh, provocative peek at America’s army of the future.
Contributors include:
• Harlan K. Ullman and James P. Wade Jr. which first used the term “shock and awe”
• Kevin Dockery on the weapons of future wars
• Professor William Forstchen on how precision guided weaponry will eliminate “problem” individuals before they can start a war
• Eugene Sullivan on such legal issues as preemptive attacks and military tribunals
• Paul A. Thomsen on integrating military intelligence into strategic warfare
• John Helfers on the importance of cultural knowledge in winning wars and building alliances
• Eric Haney on the many ways in which Rapid Dominance of an adversary can be gained through Shock and Awe.
