Penguin Press, 2009. Hardcover with dust jacket. First edition. AS NEW. 512 pages; 16 pages of b&w photos; 6.5 x 9.5 inches. Singer explores the greatest revolution in military affairs since the atom bomb--the advent of robotic warfare. Wired for War vividly shows that as these technologies multiply, they will have profound effects on the front lines as well as on the politics back home. They will affect the economics, laws, and ethics that surround war itself. Paradoxically, these new technologies will also bring war to our doorstep. While his analysis is unnerving, thereÕs an irresistible gee-whiz quality to the innovations Singer uncovers. FREE SHIPPING within the US by Media Mail. Careful and secure packaging. more information
