Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book sets out to examine the reasons for the consistent failure of the plans and strategies of great military theorists throughout history. The author reviews the theories of such great military thinkers as Jomini, Clausewitz, Mahan, and Douhet, and finds that they have all undere…stimated the degree of friction or chance that is inherent to war. The author argues that this friction is due to the complexity of war, and the fact that it is a human activity that involves multiple interacting factors. The author goes on to suggest that the best way to deal with the friction of war is to have a strategy that is flexible and adaptable, and to be prepared to make changes to the plan as the situation on the ground changes.
