What can Thucydides teach us about the war in Iraq in 2003? What is the key to adaptation during an ongoing conflict? How do you balance the tension between political and military objectives? Why are insurgency and terrorism such powerful military tactics, and how do you combat them?

As these questions show, military strategy matters. Civilizations with the greatest strategists-often coupled with the greatest resources-have had a powerful edge over competing civilizations. From Napoleon's revolutionary campaigns to the way insurgency, terrorism, and nuclear weaponry have defined the nature of warfare in the 21st century, the results of military strategy have changed the course of history.

Explore Strategy from Ancient Greece to the 21st Century

Warfare has changed, yet the classics of strategic thought endure. From the triremes and hoplites of ancient Greece to the Special Forces in 21st-century Afghanistan, strategy is the process by which political objectives are translated into military action-using the means at a nation's disposal to compel an enemy to bend to its political will.

The best way to hone your strategic analysis is to study the classics of strategic theory and to test these theories across a range of historical and contemporary cases. Masters of War offers a concise and rigorous survey of history's greatest students of war, placing each theorist within his unique historical and strategic context:

Thucydides' history of the Peloponnesian War
Sun Tzu's famous The Art of War
Machiavelli's strategy for a republic with a citizen-army
Jomini, Clausewitz, and the Napoleonic revolution in warfare
The development of naval strategy and the rise of airpower
Mao Tse-tung, David Galula, and Roger Trinquier's reflections on insurgency and counterinsurgency-and their influence on the U. S. Army's Field Manual 3-24
Just-war theory, from Thucydides' Melian Dialogue to Operation Iraqi Freedom
Nuclear war, terrorism, and other strategic challenges for the 21st century

Throughout Masters of War: History's Greatest Strategic Thinkers, you'll explore the social and moral dimensions of war and statesmanship; you'll probe unresolved questions about limited nuclear war, the possibility of a just war, and the efficacy of our counterterrorist tactics; and you'll come away with the confidence to participate in strategic debates-not only about present conflicts, but those in the future.
