About this title

From the Publisher:

Praise for James F. Dunnigan and Albert A. Nofi:

"Informative and entertaining, but sobering...A first-rate collection of facts about weapons systems." --The New York Times Book Review on Dirty Little Secrets

"Dirty Little Secrets is full of surprises about the inner workings of war-making machinery around the world. And, with war and rumors of war no more distant than the front page of today's newspaper, Dirty Little Secrets is a useful briefing...a handbook of our times." --Los Angeles Times on Dirty Little Secrets

"First rate. The essays read well; the informality and the point of view are reminiscent of the reflective talk of soldiers." --Scientific American on How to Make War

"[Digital Soldiers] will be received with utmost seriousness--and is likely to spark significant controversy...[Dunnigan's] engaging and daring analytic prospectus should fascinate armchair warriors as well as their professional counterparts." --Publishers Weekly on Digital Soldiers
