A fascinating glimpse of future war -- fought without human confrontation. Argues that advances in surveillance & target acquisition systems, the development of increasingly intelligent missiles & highly destructive conventional warheads, & the automation of command, control, & communications operations foreshadow the advent of war fought entirely by machines. Reveals an new perspectives on the modern battleground where advancing forces are not men but mechanized drones, monitored on video screens by commanders who base their strategies on unmanned aircraft, reconnaissance from satellites, & underground sensors.
