Conflict Realism delves into the intricate web of causation to unveil five pivotal trends shaping the landscape of war and warfare - urban warfare, sieges, attrition, precision strike strategy, and proxy wars - revealing a stark reality: wars remain far more attritional than anticipated by policymakers, military practitioners, and analysts alike.

Industry Reviews

Amos Fox is doing more clear-eyed thinking about the evolution of the character of warfare over the past 20 years and what it portends for the future of conflict than virtually anyone else. This book challenges current analysis, current assumptions and decisions by many current military analysts, senior defense and military leaders. This work should gain their attention and spark an intellectually rooted debate about what the intersection of war, societies and technologies means for how we will fight and how we should organize and prepare for it. Amos Fox has prepared a primer for the Pentagon brass to educate themselves on the issues at hand and gives a prescription of how to proceed. Let's hope they read it.
