A fascinating book about the psychology of warfare. How many people on average will kill in war? How many will fight and why? What is more likely to make a soldier freeze or run? How can this be encouraged so that the number of fatalities on the battlefield be reduced? A combination of real world examples and experience, studies and experimentation bought together by an author who has specialised in this field of study for many years .
