The book explores the paradox of military spending versus effectiveness in conflicts faced by Western nations. Rob de Wijk presents a theory emphasizing the importance of decisive force and a nuanced understanding of conflict dynamics. He argues that merely having superior resources and weaponry does not guarantee victory, highlighting the necessity of balancing means with ends in military strategies. This updated edition delves into the complexities of coercion and the shortcomings of recent military engagements.
