I'd like to give this book 5 stars but will content myself with 4.

I gained a lot of insight from this book. It is scary when you think of the trajectory that war is taking. Most of us do not follow the gradients of war, and still think of it as something that is fought in the physical plane - between states.

4GW has taken it to the realm of non-state actors, and 5GW takes it further, to the point when the entity being attacked is not even aware of the aggression.

So, why the 4-stars and not show more the 5?
For one, there is too much repetition. I would have preferred to have one core chapter, and then for the other writes to build upon this.

Second, the formatting on the Kindle is bad, and makes for some difficult reading.

Still it is enlightening. show less
