This book shows, however, that, broadly speaking, defence technologies will continue to provide enormous advantages to advanced, Western armed forces.The book is organised into five parts: land and sea, air and space, the computer factor, intelligence and spycraft, and the road ahead, which examines the coming challenges for western armies, such as new wars against insurgents operating out of civilian areas.
