New Principles of War: Enduring Truths with Timeless Examples argues that the currently recognised principles of war are flawed, and proposes a new set of principles to guide military leaders. New Principles of War: Enduring Truths with Timeless Examples uses historical examples to show how recognised principles of war identified by Carl von Clausewitz in his essay Principles of War, and later enlarged in his book, On War which has been influential on how military thinking is outdated and flawed, and in their place proposes a new set of principles. Formulated with the intention of passing the 5,000 year test, the nine new principles of war are: Prioritised Objectives, Relative Advantage, Unity of Effort, Initiative, Surprise, Deception, Know Yourself, Know Your Enemy, and Know the Environment. By analysing and reforming the principles of war, Dr. Marvin Pokrant provides a new, relevant and useful way to guide decisions made in times of war. AUTHOR: Marvin Pokrant is a retired Military Operations Analyst for the ManTech International Corporation and the Center for Naval Analyses.
