coming decades.” —August Cole, co-author of Burn-In: A Novel of the Real Robotic
Revolution and Ghost Fleet: A Novel of the Next World War
“While technology may be the catalyst for change in the coming Fourth Industrial Revolution, our armed forces are ultimately altered by people, ideas, and institutions in that order. In War Transformed, General Ryan's timely book, the reader gains a keen sense of how the old and the new in human conflict will impact the profession of arms. A must-read and a surefire product for all security studies and military educational programs.”
—Frank Hoffman, National Defense University, author of Mars Adapting: Military Change During War
“Few military leaders have thought as deeply about the future of war as Major General Mick Ryan. The result is a book rich in insights into the changing shape of conflict and strategic competition, and wise in its recommendations for how western militaries need to adapt to twenty-first century challenges.” —Theo Farrell, professor and deputy vice-chancellor for
Education, University of Wollongong, and former head of the Department of War Studies, King’s College London
“In a sweeping review of war and strategy, from Thucydides and Sun Tzu to Clausewitz, Fuller, Cohen, Qiao and Wang, Ryan distills accelerating trends affecting the character of war to make a compelling case for a rejuvenation of the profession of arms to face the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and renewed great power contestation.” —John Blaxland, Professor of
International Security and Intelligence Studies, Strategic and Defence Studies Centre, Australian National University
