Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of time, humans have fought with one another in the quest to endure and emerge victorious. Whether with sword, mace, staff, knife or gun the human has tried to annihilate their own species in order to claim the spoils. Modern times are no different. We are still symbolically cutting off each others head except we do so with a pen, paper or with our words and voice. The attacks are just as real and the effects, just as devastating.

This book was released on with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive Warfare in the Age of Unpeace: Strategies, Defenses, and the New Battlefield of the Mind is a definitive examination of the emergent arena of cognitive warfare—a battlefield where consciousness and cognition are under siege. Rooted in the historical lineage of warfare, this seminal tome charts a course from the stratagems of yesteryear's influence operations to the digital subversions that define our current epoch. The book is structured to provide a layered understanding of the subject. Part I lays the foundation, explaining how the age of unpeace has given rise to a new form of warfare that exists between peace and war, where the battle for influence is paramount. Part II describes the modern tools at the disposal of state and non-state actors, including AI and neurotechnological advancements, and the ways in which these tools can manipulate and coerce on a mass scale. Through real-world case studies, Part III illustrates the practical application of cognitive strategies and the impact of such warfare on democracies, highlighting the need for robust countermeasures. In Part IV, the focus shifts to strategic insights, examining both offensive strategies for influence and subversion and the defensive strategies necessary to maintain cognitive sovereignty. The latter sections, Parts V and VI, provide a forward-looking perspective on building societal and governmental defenses against cognitive attacks. These include fostering societal resilience through public education, developing policy and governance frameworks, and addressing the ethical dimensions of cognitive defense. The final chapters speculate on the future trajectory of cognitive warfare, emphasizing the importance of international cooperation and the establishment of ‘cognitive peace’. With its conclusion and appendices providing a roadmap and additional resources, this book stands as an essential guide for policymakers, security experts, academics and citizens alike in understanding and countering the sophisticated threat of cognitive warfare in our increasingly interconnected world.

Download or read book Cognitive Warfare written by Adam Henschke and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-13 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the conceptual, historical, and ethical issues of information conflict to present a detailed analysis of cognitive warfare. Is it possible for liberal democracies to deliberately use information on civilian populations to impact political and social institutions? While information conflict has been a part of political conflict, warfare, and international relations for as long as there has been political competition, given that our modern political and social lives are saturated by information, we are now faced with a pressing set of reasons to understand cognitive warfare, and to place it in a wider historical and technological context. This book identifies a series of conceptual and ethical challenges facing liberal democracies around modern information conflict. Drawing from historical practices, it suggests that two values – human dignity and political autonomy – can explain why some acts of cognitive warfare might be judged to be good while other acts are judged to be bad. This book will be of much interest to students and researchers of intelligence studies, ethics, security studies, and International Relations.
Download or read book The Cognitive Challenge of War written by Peter Paret and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-08 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The compelling story of the military campaign that changed how we think about war Responding to the enemy's innovation in war presents problems to soldiers and societies of all times. This book traces Napoleon's victory over Prussia in 1806 and Prussia's effort to recover from defeat to show how in one particular historical episode operational analyses together with institutional and political decisions eventually turned defeat to victory. The author moves from a comparative study of French and Prussian forces to campaign narrative and strategic analysis. He examines processes of change in institutions and doctrine, as well as their dependence on social and political developments, and interprets works of art and literature as indicators of popular and elite attitudes toward war, which influence the conduct of war and the kind and extent of military innovation. In the concluding chapter he addresses the impact of 1806 on two men who fought on opposing sides in the campaign and sought a new theoretical understanding of war—Henri Jomini and Carl von Clausewitz. Fields of history that are often kept separate are brought together in this book, which seeks to replicate the links between different areas of thought and action as they exist in reality and shape events.

Download or read book The Art of Psychological Warfare written by Kingsley Register and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to understand what psychological warfare is? If yes, then keep reading! Philosophers have long debated the different realms of the mind. Since ancient times, thinkers have discussed and written about the different parts of the psyche; there are the parts that are dedicated to loving, to thinking about material things, to armistices, to combat. However, to talk about the subconscious, we must speak of Freud. Sigmund Freud was one of the most important psychologists and philosophers in the history of mankind. He lived around the turn of the 19th century, and it was the one who developed the concept of psychoanalysis. This book cover contains: What is psychological warfare? War is based on deception - principles of Sun Tzu The manipulation Mental control Why Genghis Khan is a military genius Do whatever is needed - Machiavellian lessons People moralism - Machiavelli The power potential within you And many more! Psychoanalysis is a method of uncovering unconscious material through various methods of applied therapy. By sitting on a couch and talking about whatever arose in the person's mind, Freud would be able to analyze that person's life and unconscious motives. Freud believed that people are driven by deep, instinctual, sexually centered drives. He believed that our animal nature was a considerable part of our psyche and that what we presented to the world was only a small part of the equation. Think about an iceberg; there is a part that is visible above the water, and that is the conscious mind. What do we mean by the conscious mind? It is the part of the mind that is thinking, feeling, and expressing itself at the moment. Want to know more about this book? Buy now!

Download or read book Sun Tzu and the Art of Modern Warfare written by Mark R. McNeilly and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-02 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long acknowledged as a classic text on strategy, Sun Tzu's The Art of War has been admired by leaders as diverse as Mao Zedong and General Norman Schwartzkopf. However, having been written two thousand years ago, the book can be somewhat daunting to the modern reader. Mark McNeilly, author of Sun Tzu and the Art of Business (OUP, 2011), which made Sun Tzu accessible to the business executive, has extracted the six concepts most applicable to modern warfare, making them easy to understand and apply to military situations. Drawing on a wealth of fascinating historical examples, McNeilly shows how these six principles might be used in wars of the future---both conventional wars and terrorist conflicts---and how they can provide insight into current affairs, such as the war on terrorism and China's increasingly important strategic and military role in the world. This updated edition reflects on all that has happened in the past ten years, including the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the challenge of Iran, the "Arab Spring," and the continued rise of China. Each chapter includes brand new examples to explain important concepts in The Art of War. Including the full text of The Art of War in the popular translation by Samuel Griffith, with cross-references to quotations used in the book, Sun Tzu and the Art of Modern Warfare unlocks these elusive secrets for anyone interested in strategy and warfare, whether they are professional soldiers, military history buffs, or business executives.
Download or read book The Art of War and Peace written by David Kilcullen and published by Penguin Random House South Africa. This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How have the character and technology of war changed in recent times? Why does battlefield victory often fail to result in a sustainable peace? What is the best way to prevent, fight and resolve future conflict? The world is becoming a more dangerous place. Since the fall of Kabul and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the US-led liberal international order is giving way to a more chaotic, contested and multipolar world system. Western credibility and deterrence are diminishing in the face of wars in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, tensions across the Taiwan Strait, and rising populism and terrorism around the world. Can peace, mutual respect and democracy survive, or are we destined to a new permanent chaos in which authoritarians and populists thrive? Based on their decades of experience as policy advisors in conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq, Colombia and across Africa, and on recent fieldwork in Israel, Ukraine, Ethiopia, and Taiwan, the authors analyse the nature of modern war, considering both large-scale, high-intensity state-on-state conflicts as well as limited-objective, irregular, low-intensity conflicts that often include both inter- and intra-state dimensions. The book investigates how technology can be a leveller for small powers against larger aggressors; how one can shape and sustain a viable narrative to ensure public and international support; the balance between self-reliance and alliance commitment; and the role of leadership, intelligence, diplomacy, economic assistance. Weighing up past lessons, present observations and predictions about the future, The Art of War and Peace explores how wars can be won on the battlefield and how that success can be translated into a stable and enduring peace.
