À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Throughout history society has determined specific rules of engagement between adversaries in armed conflict. With advances in technology, from armor to in the Middle Ages to nerve gas in World War I to weapons of mass destruction in our own time, the rules have constantly evolved. Today, when killing the enemy can seem palpably risk-free and tantamount to playing a violent video game, what constitutes warfare? What is the effect of remote combat on individual soldiers? And what are the unforeseen repercussions that could affect us all? Lt Col Wayne Phelps, former commander of a Remotely Piloted Aircraft unit, and Lt Col Dave Grossman, author of the landmark work On Killing and a leading scholar of the effects of killing on the human psyche, address these questions and many others as they tell the story of the men and women of today's "chair force." Exploring the ethics of remote military engagement, the misconceptions about PTSD among RPA operators, and the specter of military weaponry controlled by robots, their book is an urgent and compelling reminder that it should always be difficult to kill another human being lest we risk losing what makes us human.

Reviews
"Phelps brings a crucial voice of analytical nuance...Insightful and thought-provoking." -- Ian MacLeod, former co-chair of the International Panel on the Regulation of Autonomous Weapons, "The psychology of RPA combat is as secretive as the airframes themselves--remote, mysterious, and hard to find... This book should be required reading for all warriors."-- Karen House, MA, MSW, LMSW, LPC, "An essential read...We have crossed a new frontier in the age-old story of war." -- P. W. Singer, author of Wired for War and Ghost Fleet, "The most impressive and comprehensive account of 21st-century remote air warfare...A mesmerizing read: I was gripped from the first page to the last."-- Professor Peter Lee, author of Reaper Force, "Phelps and Grossman pull back the curtain on the high-demand RPA force...An insightful look at a uniquely gifted community of warriors."-- Lt. General Robert F. Hedelund, USMC, "An extraordinary achievement...Destined to become a classic."-- Mitt Regan, Georgetown University Law Center, "A crucial 360° look at how remote warfare affects the crews fighting from afar."-- Major Scott Swanson, USAF (retired), "An essential read...We have crossed a new frontier in the age-old story of war."-- P. W. Singer, author of Wired for War and Ghost Fleet, "Phelps pulls back the curtain on the high-demand RPA force...An insightful look at a uniquely gifted community of warriors."-- Lt. General Robert F. Hedelund, USMC, "A seminal work in understanding the toll that killing remotely takes on the people who operate and support lethal remotely piloted aircraft."-- Major General James Poss, USAF (retired)
