Chapter 5 Control from the ground up : Embedding influence activities in the…
"This book examines the key dimensions of 21st century war, and shows that orthodox thinking about war, particularly what it is and how it is fought, needs to be updated.

Chapter 5 An Idea Incarnated in an Individual German Philosophy and the Firs…
Written when Eliot rekindled his interest in Husserl and turned his attention to Heidegger, Triumphal March can be interpreted as a poem performing a philosophical experiment: it depicts the figure of a leader as seen in the light of Husserl’s Ideas and within the perspective of Heidegger’s Being and Time.
