Masters of War: Classical Strategic Thought by Handel, Michael I.(October 1, 2000) Paperback by Michael I. Handel

Read pages 1-52 and 155-164 of this book while at the NWC in August 2023.

From the S&W syllabus: Handel, a former professor in the Strategy and Policy Department, argues that despite differences in emphasis and substance, a universal or unified strategic logic transcends the wide gaps in time, culture, and historical experience that separate nations. Students are encouraged to challenge Handel’s thesis and assess the extent to which culture might influence planning and operations. Other show more chapters, appendices, and charts in this book are assigned later in the course. show less
