The Evolution Of The Laws Of War In The War On Terror

摘要

In summarizing what the reader should take from this narrative, the author returns to the warrior ideal to produce two overall principles. The first principle boils down to a simple epithet: warriors need rules.32 Such a catch phrase is perhaps what the authors, collectively, would use if asked to summarize their book in three words.
