{"product_id":"military-strategy-john-stone-9781350106246","title":"Military Strategy: The Politics and Technique of War","description":"Military strategy is concerned with the translation of armed force into intended political effects. As such, it constitutes one of the most important activities of the past two centuries; and yet during this period it has not always been practised very effectively.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, John Stone seeks to explain why this has been the case by examining various instances of strategic practice drawn from the period between the eighteenth century and the present day. He contends that, to be truly effective, strategy must faithfully reflect the political context in which it is formulated. Where strategy has failed, it is frequently because its practitioners have paid undue attention to military-technical matters at the expense of politics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Stone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350106240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350106246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.70d","brand":"John Stone","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941734777087,"sku":"9781350106246","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_ac39c830-2334-498a-b42b-e253a34c44c6.jpg?v=1681454661","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/military-strategy-john-stone-9781350106246","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
