Reviews
"An excellent primer on military strategy and joint operations. The book reveals the complexities of strategy development by exposing the reader to the tenets of national security and defense; military forces and joint organizational principles; synchronizing operations; military theory and operations; and planning and operational design in the contemporary environment. The authors highlight the importance of strategy development as a multidisciplinary endeavor, drawing from history, theory, doctrine, philosophy, and practice. This book will enhance the warrior-scholar mindset of the current and future officers who read it." ? Lt Gen David A. Deptula , USAF (Ret.), dean, Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies "Superbly written by professional military educators, Military Strategy, Joint Operations, and Air Power is more than a textbook for air force cadets, though it performs that task admirably. It is also an outstanding primer for anyone interested in how the US military is organized, develops strategy, and employs as a joint force." ? Phil Haun , dean of academics, US Naval War College
