Cimbala shows why the prevention, management, and concluding of
war all require an understanding of the subjective aspects of
decision making as well as the hardware and tactics of military
operations. A review of past cases of U.S. security policy decision
making and a preview of some future problems are combined to
distill important lessons about coping with conflict in the
post-Cold War world.
These lessons include the awareness that some conflicts are
unnecessarily provoked or prolonged on account of the gap between
the perspectives and experiences of civilian policy makers and the
views of the armed forces leadership. Another important lesson is
that, in resolving or managing conflicts, perceptions, and
expectations of leaders filter out alternatives that might have led
to preferred solutions had they been attempted in good time. Of
particular interest to policy makers, military professionals, and
researchers involved with contemporary military issues.
