The threat of terrorism and insurgency is one that dominates the world, and how to fight and defeat these "non-state" enemies is the most urgent and vexing questions to confront the military and politicians of today. Drawing on his experience of decades of counterinsurgency, Corum brings an unique insight to the problems faced, and offers credible answers and solutions. He offers a deeply informed, closely reasoned account of how actions and inactions have contributed to world situation; with the lessons of history clearly in view, it lays out a workable strategy for meeting the insurgent threat. For anyone wishing to understand the changing nature of modern warfare, "Fighting The War On Terror" has broad implications for foreign policy making, military, intelligence, and security operations across the globe - no one interested these areas can ignore it.
