Headquarters Supreme Allied Commander Transformation led the autonomous systems focus area, which brought together a group of scientific, policy, legal and military experts to study this critical defence policy issue. This volume elaborates more on their contributions, in addition to welcoming several new authors. Their studies are presented in a high quality, peer-reviewed and edited volume, which isreleased publicly to encourage wide readership and debate."; Preface: "... This series of edited volumes is another vector for innovation in NATO. The first volume in the series—Innovation in Operations Assessment—was highly successful."
