The New Politics of Conflict
Chris Hables Gray

"[Gray's] demonstration of the emotional relationship between humans and 'technoscience' is provocative."
-Publishers Weekly
"Cyberwar, Infowar, Technowar, Antiwar, Postwar. You've seen it on TV and played the videogame. Now you can read the book that separates the hype from the real in the hyperreality of Postmodern War. Chris Hables Gray combines high theory, popular culture, and archival material with an apocalyptic power."
-James Der Derian, author of Anti-Diplomacy
"Postmodern War provides a sweeping vision of the history of war and the emergence of its specifically late 20th-century form. Alert to paradoxes, Gray shows postmodern war to be a perverse and critical species of progress inextricably linked to globalized technoscience, computers, and information....Postmodern War is written against denial and for the possibility of truly changing the rules of engagement in our war-ready and war-saturated time."
