Not Dead: A Case for Tanks in the Modern Battlespace (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781998501748)

In Not Dead, Dr. Charles S. Oliviero-career tank commander, scholar, and military thinker-takes aim at the fashionable notion that the main battle tank is obsolete.

Drawing on decades of operational experience and academic study, Oliviero dismantles the myths born from shallow reporting and misunderstood drone footage. He explains what tanks actually do, how they fit within the combined arms system, and why, when used correctly, they remain the most decisive land weapon on the modern battlefield.

From the muddy fields of France in 1940 to the drone-filled skies of Ukraine in 2025, Not Dead blends history, theory, and hard-won practical insight. Accessible yet uncompromising, it's a masterclass in how to think about warfare-written for soldiers, scholars, and anyone who refuses to accept headlines as truth.

The tank is not obsolete. It's just misunderstood.
