The Spartan City State produced what is probably one of the most
iconic and ruthless military forces in recorded history. They
believed that military training and education began at birth.
Post-World War II saw a shift to army tanks, fighter jets and
missiles that would go on to fight the next huge battle in Northern
Europe. Today, with the advent of unmanned systems, our hopes are
attached to the idea that we can fight our battles with soldiers
pressing buttons in distant command centres. However, soldiers must
now be highly trained, super strong and have the intelligence and
mental capacity to handle the highly complex and dynamic military
operating environment. It is only now as we progress into the
twenty-first century that we are getting closer to realising the
Spartan ideal and creating a soldier that can endure more than ever
before. This book provides the first comprehensive and unifying
analysis of the moral, legal and social questions concerning
military human enhancement, with a view toward developing guidance
and policy that may influence real-world decision making.
