“One of the best new drone books” – Bookout Her
In the entire history, the society has determined the specific rules of engagement among opponents in armed struggle. With the progress in technology, weapons, rules of mass destruction in our own time from armor to nerve gas in the First World War in the Middle Ages have constantly developed. Today, what is the formation of war when killing the enemy and tentmount to play violent video games? What is the effect of distant match on individual soldiers? And what are unpredictable results that can affect all of us?
Lieutenant Colonel Wayne Phelps, former commander of a pilot aircraft unit, addresses these questions and many others as he tells the story of men and women of today’s “chair force”. Finding the morality of distance military engagement, misunderstanding about PTSD among RPA operators, and military weapons controlled by robots, his book is an essential and captivating reminder that it should always be difficult to kill another human, not to be the risk that we make us human.
