Synopsis:

Conflicts in such places as Bosnia, Somalia, Haiti, Rwanda, and Kuwait lead to a public debate as to whether such assignments are a proper use of U.S. military power.

From the Publisher: Book Review:
"Few authors have supported, cajoled, incensed, disgusted, and delighted the Air Force as Carl Builder. In the early 1980s, he wrote a provocative book on nonnuclear strategic weapons that challenged the very existence of the Strategic Air Command. Now, with co-author Ted Karasik, he is provoking the Air Force leadership again. This book has as its thesis that the Air Force should rethink how it should organize (reorganize), equip (re-equip), train (educate), and above all, establish doctrine and select a responsible organization to understand crises and lesser conflicts (CALC) in our unstable and disordered world." (Airpower Journal)
