Sun Tzu defined 13 principles in his The Art of War while Napoleon listed 115 maxims. American Civil War General Nathan Bedford Forest required only one: to git thar first with the most men. As the world enters the 231st century it appears that we are in the midst of revolutionary trends in international security with the forces of information technology and globalisation seemingly transforming the theory and practice of war. The principles of War are broad guidelines which influence the conduct of war at every level of military operations. They are based on past experience wherein their application with judgement led to victory. They are not rules, yet disregarding them involves risk and could result in failure. The book deeply highlights the Military Law.
