The evolution of air power doctrine from World War I to the Gulf War. The author argues that the ascendancy of precision air power in warfare--which fulfilled the promise that air power had held for more than 75 years--reflects the revolutionary adoption of a war strategy that targets things rather than people, allowing one to control an opposing nation without destroying it. Condition: good.
