Reviews
what Gray has provided here is more than ample as a base line work for anyone who wishes to get serious about strategy. * William F. Owen, Infinity Journal * Gray is a prolific writer on strategy . . . It could be said that Gray has positioned himself in pole position as a strategic thinker. Few other contemporary writers can rival him, and none has been so consistent in trying to develop a general theory, distilled largely, but not entirely from Clauswitz's On War. * Christopher Coker, RUSI Journal * it is far more than a textbook, though it certainly can and should be used for instructional purposes. In terms of rigor, Strategy Bridge is every bit as scientific as Clausewitz's On War, but much more accessible . . . It's synthetic nature and analytic rigor make Colin Gray's Strategy Bridge a necessary, and welcome, addition to any educator's already vast library of works on strategy. * Antulio J Echevarria II, US Army War College * It would be professional malfeasance . . . to overlook The Strategy Bridge. * Bradford Lee, Journal of Strategic Studies * One of the most detailed and important investigations of the concept of strategy published in recent decades. * C.Dale Walton, Lindenwood University *
