As the world careens into the 21st century, the capacity and means
by which the American Armed Forces defend their nation are entering
a paradigm-breaking transition period. Previous transitions have
been driven by the technologies of weapons and their platforms:
from sail, to boiler, to turbine; from foot, to horse, to vehicle;
from balloon, to manned aircraft, to unmanned aircraft. This is not
so in the 21st century. We need to reset our "warfighting gyro," so
to speak. To this end, taking the information revolution as a
starting point, Battle-Wise argues that only by strengthening the
relationship between information technology and brain matter will
the U.S. military enhance its ability to outsmart and outfight
future adversaries. We certainly have had our challenges in recent
military operations. Despite the exceptional heroism, courage, and
intellect of today's young military members, we need to reformulate
the manner by which we prepare them. For decades we have given them
the best weapons systems our country could produce. The authors
believe, as I do, that the time has come to augment weapons systems
and information networks with the intellectual tools that will
enable them to gain and maintain cognitive superiority and thus
turn the tables on our clever and nimble adversaries. Only by
developing battle-wise soldiers-a daunting, but critically
important effort on the part of our military leadership-can we
expect to avoid the "second kick of a mule."
