It provides concise summaries of aspects of tactics, operations, and strategy, as well as international relations theory using football as a metaphor to simplify the concepts. International relations theory and military strategy tend to be complicated subjects often explained with jargon that puts the average reader to sleep. A book about war and foreign policy explained through football analogies and comparisons is designed to liven the topic and explain various military theories, strategies, and concepts. War and football tend to dominate national media. War is often a topic of debate from the highest levels of government to local bars and coffeehouses. Football is the monolith of sports that blankets sports television and radio throughout the year. This book provides the reader an understanding of how military professionals formulate and execute strategy in an easily understandable manner. Daniel Sukman is an Army Strategist who served as the Chief of Strategy Development on the Joint Staff?. 606 $aSecurity, International 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aDiplomacy 606 $aInternational Security Studies 606 $aInternational Relations Theory 606 $aDiplomacy 615 0$aSecurity, International. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 0$aDiplomacy. 615 14$aInternational Security Studies. 615 24$aInternational Relations Theory. 615 24$aDiplomacy. 676 $a355.0092 700 $aSukman$b Daniel$01771478 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910847588503321 996 $aAmerican Football and the American Way of War$94261512 997 $aUNINA
