Thinking beyond war : civil-military relations and why America fails to win the peace by Isaiah Wilson
"Lieutenant Colonel Isaiah 'Ike' Wilson III is one of the brightest strategic thinkers in the U.S. army. As a soldier-scholar he has both served in Iraq and astutely examined what went wrong—and sometimes right. In Thinking beyond War he offers us the fruit of years of first-hand study and careful analysis. He urges the U.S. military to get beyond its narrow focus on winning battles and to think more broadly about how to convert battlefield success into long-term political victories. Thinking beyond War offers an invaluable guide to thinking about these difficult yet vitally important issues." -Max Boot
