"What to do about China's rising might and territorial ambition? Brilliant strategist Elbridge Colby takes on this vexing and increasingly urgent challenge with a clear-eyed, forceful but carefully thought-out approach. Cogently, lucidly, he uses the lessons of history to show that the best way to avoid war is to prepare for war."--Evan Thomas, co-author of The Wise Men: Six Friends and the World They Made "An exceptional book. Elbridge Colby has written a book on defense strategy that reaches a level of theoretical mastery akin to Hans Morgenthau's Politics Among Nations . There is no better guidebook to how we should think about war and peace in this new age of great power competition."--Robert D. Kaplan, author of Asia's Cauldron "Anyone interested in US strategy should read this tour de force from the primary author of the celebrated 2018 U.S. National Defense Strategy. This well-written, masterfully constructed, logically compelling book conveys the essence of strategy from one of the best current practitioners of the trade. Highly recommended!"--Robert O. Work, former Deputy Secretary of Defense "There are many ways to lose wars or win them, but only one way to avoid them: to envision closely enough the dangers to be averted by deterrence or defense. This book brings together pure intellect, wide knowledge, and practical experience to show how U.S. defense strategy must change--and fast."--Edward Luttwak, author of The Rise of China vs. the Logic of Strategy "Colby gives us an original and provocative approach to containing adversaries, especially China...distinguished by its moving seamlessly from international relations theory to detailed questions of diplomacy and force deployment."--Robert Jervis, author of How Statesmen Think, "This is a realist's book, laser-focused on China's bid for mastery in Asia as the 21st century's most important threat."--Ross Douthat, New York Times "This is a book well worth reading, packed with fresh paradigm-cracking ideas, breaking all the china in thinking how to handle China."--James Jay Carafano, National Interest "Exceptionally well-thought out. . . . A well-argued . . . case for why the United States should care about Beijing's aggression in the Indo-Pacific region. . . . Its arguments are both self-evident and well explained [and] it is thoroughly enjoyable to read."--Joshua Huminski, Diplomatic Courier "What to do about China's rising might and territorial ambition?

This book will define the basis for future debate about U.S. defense strategy in Asia. . . . Mr. Colby earns a place as an intellectual heir to the Cold War strategists who thought seriously about how to thwart Soviet designs. . . . [He] is courageous in forcing readers to think concretely about the unthinkable. . . . The task of deterring Chinese aggression is urgent, and Mr. Colby's book presents a needed path forward."--Dan Blumenthal, Wall Street Journal "This is a realist's book, laser-focused on China's bid for mastery in Asia as the 21st century's most important threat."--Ross Douthat, New York Times "Thoughtful and rigorous. . . . Makes an extended case for curtailing other commitments to focus on China. . . . The book's fundamental strength. . . . is Colby's willingness to test all sides of complicated debates. . . . Required reading for lawmakers, national security hands, and 2024 presidential hopefuls."-- Adam O'Neal, Washington Examiner "Exceptionally well-thought out. . . . A well-argued . . . case for why the United States should care about Beijing's aggression in the Indo-Pacific region. . . . Its arguments are both self-evident and well explained [and] it is thoroughly enjoyable to read."--Joshua Huminski, Diplomatic Courier "This is a book well worth reading, packed with fresh paradigm-cracking ideas, breaking all the china in thinking how to handle China."--James Jay Carafano, National Interest "What to do about China's rising might and territorial ambition?
