Paperback. Condition: New. Military commanders turn tactics into strategic victory by means of ""operational art,"" the knowledge and creative imagination commanders and staff employ in designing, synchronizing, and conducting battles and major operations to achieve strategic goals. Until now, historians of military theory have generally agreed that modern operational art developed between the first and second world wars, not in the United States but in Germany and the Soviet Union, whose armies were supposedly the innovators and greatest practitioners of operational art. Some have even claimed that U.S. forces struggled in World War II because their commanders had no systematic understanding of operational art.Michael R. Matheny believes previous studies have not appreciated the evolution of U.S. military thinking at the operational level. Although they may rightly point to the U.S. Army's failure to modernize or develop a sophisticated combined arms doctrine during the interwar years, they focus too much on technology or tactical doctrine. In his revealing account, Matheny shows that it was at the operational level, particularly in mounting joint and combined operations, that senior American commanders excelled - and laid a foundation for their country's victory in World War II.Matheny draws on archival materials from military educational institutions, planning documents, and operational records of World War II campaigns. Examining in detail the development of American operational art as land, sea, and air power matured in the twentieth century, he shows that, contrary to conventional wisdom, U.S. war colleges educated and trained commanders during the interwar years specifically for the operational art they employed in World War II.After 1945, in the face of nuclear warfare, the American military largely abandoned operational art. But since the Vietnam War, U.S. commanders have found operational art increasingly important as they pursue modern global and expeditionary warfare requiring coordination among multiple service branches and the forces of allied countries. …

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The growing field of missional hermeneutics has tended to focus on the great overarching narrative of the whole biblical canon which renders to us the mission of God for all creation and all nations. And within that frame, exegetical and hermeneutical interest in the Old Testament from a missional perspective has focused mainly on the narrative and prophetic scriptures that carry that great redemptive tradition. The Wisdom Literature has been rather neglected, as indeed it has often been in the general field of Old Testament theology. After all, in what possible way could books like Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Job be relevant for mission? Convinced that a missional hermeneutic, if it is to be truly "whole Bible" in its validity, must be capable of application to any part of Scripture, in Wisdom for the Nations: A Missional Reading of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Job, Chris Wright sets out to ask exactly that question. He first proposes a suite of heuristic questions that can uncover the missional dimensions of any biblical text, such as: where does this text fit into and relate to the grand narrative of the mission of God? What does this reveal about the God who is on mission and about the people whom he calls to participate with him? What does this text reveal about the human fallen condition and conversely of the scale and scope of the biblical good news that addresses it? How would this text have functioned to shape the people of God in their missional locatedness then, and how might it do so now? Wright then addresses these questions in turning to Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Job, and suggests that the answers may be both surprising and fruitful in deepening our understanding of the mission of God, and our theology and practice of mission as God's people today. Applies a missional hermeneutic to Wisdom literature, namely, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Job. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
