Promotional Information

Drawing on articles, interviews, and the Congressional testimony of the late Vice Admiral Arthur Cebrowski, Transforming Military Force focuses on the former officer's effort to develop new theories and strategies for what he called network-centric warfare and the need to leverage advances in military technology to develop new systems as the military wages war in the information age.

About the Author

James R. Blaker is a vice president and senior analyst at the Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC). Previously, he served as senior advisor to the Vice Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff, deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Policy Analysis, and Deputy Undersecretary of the Air Force. Dr. Blaker is the author of United States Overseas Basing: An Anatomy of the Dilemma (Praeger, 1990).

Reviews

Blaker spent October 2001 to November 2005 meeting frequently with the late Vice Admiral (ret.) Arthur K. Cebrowski and listening to him outline his ideas on military transformation, ideas he was in a position to implement as he spent most of this period as Director of the Office of Force Transformation in the US Department of Defense. Blaker takes the reader through Cebrowski's views of network- centric warfare and how it should be adopted by the US military. Blaker also assesses Cebrowski's influence while at the Office of Force Transformation and describes his perspective on bureaucratic infighting while at the Pentagon.
