Goliath

Everything you think you know about war is wrong.

War is timeless. Some things change - weapons, tactics, leadership - but our desire to go into battle does not. We are in the midst of an age of conflict: global terrorism, Russia's resurgence and China's rise, international criminal empires, climate change and dwindling natural resources.

** The stakes are high, and we are dangerously unprepared.**

As a former paratrooper and military contractor, Sean McFate has been on the front lines of deep state conflicts. He has seen firsthand the horrors of battle and as a strategist, understands the complexity of the current military situation.

The West is playing the same old war games, but the enemy has changed the rules. In this new age of war:

** -technology will not save us,**

** -victory will belong to the cunning, not the strong,**

** -plausible deniability is more potent than firepower**

** -corporations, mercenaries, and rogue states have more power than nation states, and loyalty will sit with the highest bidder.**

Learn how to triumph in the coming age of conflict in ten new rules. Adapt and we can prevail. Fail, and size and strength won't protect us.

** This is The Art of War for the 21st century.**
