About this Item

1st edition stiff wrappers As New octavo 269pp., notes, index, On today's complex, fragmented, fast-moving battlefield, where combatants adapt constantly to exploit one-another's weaknesses, there is a demonstrable requirement for military commanders to devolve a high level of autonomy of decision-making and action to leaders on the ground. An effective model for doing this has existed for some time in the form of mission command and has been utilised by the U.S., Israeli, and British Armies but with mixed success.
