From the Back Cover
The Logic of Force examines the postwar tension between two powerful analytical approaches to the use of force. The first approach makes an all-or-nothing argument to the effect that if force is to be used it should be employed at whatever level is necessary to decisively achieve the nation's political and military objectives. The second, or limited war approach, posits that political objectives often require that limits be placed on the use of force, a perfectly acceptable state of affairs to its adherents.
