An essential introduction to contemporary strategy at the
operational level of war, now in its second edition Military
Strategy, Joint Operations, and Airpower introduces contemporary
strategy at the operational level of war, particularly as it
relates to airpower. Developed as foundational reading for all US
Air Force Academy cadets, Air Force ROTC students, and Officer
Training School candidates, this intermediate textbook is designed
to close the gap between military theory and practice. It covers
strategic foundations; operational design and joint-service
operations; the air, space, and cyber capabilities that comprise
modern airpower; and contemporary challenges in the application of
strategy. In this second edition, each chapter has been updated and
revised, and several sections have been expanded. Part 2, "Military
Forces and the Joint Fight," now features separate chapters about
each service. Similarly, operational design is expanded from one to
four chapters to provide a more thorough step-by-step guide through
the process. New chapters in this second edition include
"Integrating the Instruments of Power," "The Spectrum of Conflict
and Range of Military Operations," and "The Nuclear Weapons Triad
and Missile Defense." Military Strategy, Joint Operations, and
Airpower's contributing authors and editors include both military
practitioners and scholars of security studies, political science,
and history. In addition to being required reading for US Air Force
cadets, the book provides an essential overview of strategy and
practice for anyone interested in modern airpower.

War is changing. The cybersphere, civil society, outer space ...
all are emerging as domains in which battles are fought. What
drives this shift? How is it affecting the character and conduct of
war? What are the implications for military strategy? As they
address these fundamental questions, Jahara Matisek and Buddhika
Jayamaha show how today's civil society, technology, and military
organization are dramatically transforming warfare-in a world in
which war is at once everywhere and nowhere, and nearly everything
can be weaponized.
