This study is based on a detailed textual analysis of the classical works on war, the central conclusion being that the logic of waging war and of strategic thinking is as universal and timeless as human nature itself.

This work defines weak states and their strengths and weaknesses. It examines why they are weak and their position in different international systems as well as their economic positions.

These essays investigate the logic, conduct and nature of war on the highest political and strategic levels,as they look at the impact of technology on warfare, the political nature of war and the limits of rational analysis in studying war.
