Description

Understanding Land Warfare by Christopher Tuck provides a comprehensive grounding in modern land warfare, covering its vocabulary, concepts, issues and debates. The second edition has been updated with new chapters on non-western perspectives and hybrid warfare, drawing on case studies from the First World War to contemporary conflicts. This book explores what is unique about the land domain and how it has shaped military operations, including conventional campaigning, counterinsurgency, and peace support operations. It examines key themes such as the role of technology, culture and context in shaping land warfare, as well as the challenges of translating theory into effective practice. A valuable resource for military practitioners and students of land warfare, this book offers in-depth discussions on contemporary issues including hybrid warfare, emerging technologies, and military reform processes.
