On Clausewitz: A Study Of Military and Political Ideas (2005) By Hugh Smith
Clausewitz is often quoted but more often misunderstood. On Clausewitz presents his central ideas about war and politics - such as war as an instrument of policy, the concept of Absolute War, friction, and the fog of war - is a clear and systematic fashion. It also presents the man, his life, and the military and intellectual environment in which he produced his great work On War. A final section considers Clausewitz's relevance to the rapidly changing nature of war today.
