Book excerpt: Since the Gulf War, a revolution in military affairs has been proclaimed in the US based on the combination of precision guidance of weapons and new information technologies.

The author examines the strategies and instruments that may be used by the weak against the strong. These include weapons of mass destruction and `information war'.
