Book: Brave New War: The Next Stage of Terrorism and the End of Globalization. John Robb. Wiley, 2006

URL = http://globalguerrillas.typepad.com/globalguerrillas/2006/10/book.html


Recommendation

Michel Bauwens: John Robb is the editor of the Global Guerrilla blog, which focuses on how the new breed of insurgents are using distributed network tactics; in this book, he suggest new defense mechanisms, which means that nation-states must also adapt distributed tactics. The first book of its kind, and strongly recommended.


Review

"The first is the relatively small number of specialists in military affairs, serious students of geopolitics and bloggers who are already avid readers of Robb's Global Guerillas site. For them, Brave New War is a systematic and footnoted exposition of the theories of conflict and "dangerous ideas" that Robb discusses daily on his blog. They will be entertained and challenged by the same analysis that makes them return again and again to Global Guerillas to debate John Robb and one another.

The second audience is composed of everyone else. Brave New War is simply going to blow them away." (from the zen pundit in amazon.com)
