| Abstract
|
:
|
This book explicates the conditions under which military organizations have both succeeded and failed at institutionalizing new ideas and forms of warfare. Through comparative analysis of some classic cases, the authors offer a novel explanation for change rooted in managerial strategies for aligning service incentives and norms.
