by Christian P. Potholm II (Author)
In Winning at War, Christian Potholm explains how seven variables-technology, sustained ruthlessness, discipline, receptivity to innovation, protection of military capital from civilians and rulers, will, and the belief that there will always be another war-have served as predictors of military success over time and across cultures. He provides case studies of their implementation, from ancient battles to today.
