In Multidomain Operations: The Pursuit of Battlefield Dominance in the 21st Century, Amos Fox and Franz-Stefan Gady challenge one of modern war's most influential doctrines: MDO. Is it the right framework for 21st-century conflict-or a concept rushed into service without sufficient grounding? Through the lenses of origin, field application, academic critique, and international perspectives, the authors examine MDO's theoretical and practical shortcomings. They argue that MDO is a solution in search of a problem-strategically narrow, tactically vague, and ill-suited for America's allies. This book calls for a doctrinal reset: one that addresses precision strike overreach, rising attrition warfare, and the enduring need for land forces. With rigorous policy and PME recommendations, Fox and Gady offer a vital roadmap for rethinking military doctrine. Essential reading for defense leaders, scholars, and warfighters alike, this book reshapes how we must think about future battlefields.

Industry Reviews

"Multidomain Operations is a must-read for military professionals and policy makers. Fox and Gady explore how warfare is evolving across land, air, sea, cyber, and space-challenging conventional doctrine and urging adaptation to today's complex operational landscape." - Lieutenant General Kevin Admiral, Commanding General, US III Armored Corpsï»

"Amos Fox and Franz-Stefan Gady bring sharp analysis to MDO, challenging dominant narratives with expert insight. Essential reading for scholars, policymakers, and military professionals navigating the realities of modern warfare and the evolving concept of Multidomain Operations." - Anthony King, PhD, Director, University of Exeter's Strategy and Security Institute

"'The greatest risk of MDO is that it over-promises to policymakers something that military concepts have never been able to deliver, and that is to achieve the political end state that the war or conflict seeks.' Therefore, policymakers, strategists, senior military leaders, concept developers, and doctrine writers should take a hard look at whether MDO is a feasible, acceptable, suitable, and complete doctrine..." - ARMY magazine

"For policymakers, strategists, and senior military leaders, especially on this side of the Atlantic, an indispensable read to understand the roots, ambitions, limits, dead ends and perspectives of Multi Domain Operations. A necessary wake up call to prevent MDO from being excessive, misinterpreted, hollowed out and disconnected from what is achievable in time and is relevant to dominate the future battle space. An enormous amount of food for thought!" - Lieutenant General ret. Alfons Mais, 21st Chief of German Army / 2020-2025

"The character of warfare has been evolving rapidly and there is much that we can learn from current conflicts. This excellent book reminds that all wars are sui generis and therefore not all lessons are applicable to what happens next. What most observers would agree is that the Ukraine War has seen a vast leap forward in autonomy (to make up for capability limitations elsewhere) and the integration of vast quantities of data to achieve greater information advantage. This book rightly highlights the potential that the integration of the operational domains has to offer, and it also presents wise advice on how to execute. I commend it to you." -  General Sir Nick Carter GCB CBE DSO ADC Gen
