This book provides a Fascinating look at the true weaknesses of the American Military System. It is with this book that China Identifies America as its sole Predominate Enemy. The United States is indeed a Major focus of the book simply because it is Militarily the most powerful and advanced nation that has fought in several major wars, Particularly the Gulf War, with significant innovations in weaponry, military strategies and tactics. Yet, the authors feel that superior weaponry need not come from technology. They state that in Unconventional warfare, technology does not always benefit and can become a liability. Taking that as an example, the authors discuss the new principles of war: Omni-directionality, Synchrony, Limited Objectives, Unlimited Measures, Asymmetry, Minimal Consumption, Multi-dimension Coordination and Adjustment and Control of the Entire Process. They Point towards a new kind of warfare, which is sometimes called Fourth Generation War, or Asymmetric War which signifies non-military warfare where superior weapons technology, computers and hackers will replace soldiers in the battlefield. 9/11, 7/7 and the Mumbai Bomb blasts of 2006 clearly show that the authors are justified in explaining how the mind of the new enemy works.
