Description

Many nations, peoples and special interest groups believe that violence will advance their cause. Warfare has changed greatly since the Second World War, but most western armed forces have yet to evolve significantly from the cold war era when they trained to resist a conventional invasion.

America is now the only superpower, but its dominance is threatened by internal and external factors. The world's most hi-tech weaponry seems helpless in the face of determined guerrilla fighters not afraid to die for their beliefs. Professor Colin Gray has advised governments on both sides of the Atlantic and in ANOTHER BLOODY CENTURY, he reveals what sort of conflicts will affect our world in the years to come.
