Echevarria II critiques the theory of fourth-generation warfare, examining its problematic assumptions and logical flaws. He argues that this theory is hopelessly flawed and that its proponents undermine their credibility by subscribing to it. Dr. Antulio J. Echevarria II became the Editor of the US Army War College Quarterly in February 2013. Prior to that, he was the Director of Research for the US Army War College. He has published extensively in scholarly and professional journals on topics related to military history and theory and strategic thinking. Dr. Echevarria is a graduate of the US Military Academy, the US Army Command and General Staff College, the US Army War College, and was a Visiting Research Fellow at Oxford University. He holds M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in history from Princeton University." Condition: Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear and soiling.
