edited by David M. Kennedy. 
 - 1 online resource (xix, 332 pages) 
<br/><br/>Includes bibliographical references and index. 
<br/><br/> The advent of the all-volunteer force and the evolving nature of modern warfare have transformed our military, changing it in serious if subtle ways that few Americans are aware of. The book aims to shed new light on the changes effecting today's armed forces. It takes an historical approach as it explores the ever-changing strategic, political, and fiscal contexts in which the armed forces are trained and deployed, and the constantly shifting objectives that they are tasked to achieve in the post-9/11 environment.
