OFFICIAL PUBLICATION DAY for this exciting new book on space
https://www.howgatepublishing.com/product-page/cyber-warfare-ethics
Cyber technology gives states the ability to accomplish effects that once required kinetic action. These effects can now be achieved with cyber means in a manner that is covert, deniable, cheap, and technologically feasible for many governments. In some cases, cyber means are morally preferable to c...
Essential reading for military scholars interested in transformation in the twenty-first century, Patrick Bury's unique study of the British Army explores the recent emergence of the new Reserve force out of the Territorial Army through a detailed ethnography of its logistic regiments. The book's findings are both fascinating and also potentially incendiary. While highlighting revolutionary changes in the way that the British Army sustains itself, Bury also shows that far from a rational adaptation, the creation of the Reserves was deeply politicized.

This is a high-level work pitched mainly at professionals in military training institutions at all level, and unit and formation commanders. It is a big ask for junior officers to make the effort to avail themselves of the critical content of this very impressive work.
RUSI review of Mission Improbable now available at: https://www.rusivic.org.au/mission-improbable
I found this book a difficult ‘read’ in that it was more like a text than a readable book! The author by his own description was a later-in-life academic specialising in ‘military and counter-terrorism organisational transformation and cohesion’.

Surely not another fabulous review? This time in the esteemed JOURNAL OF MILITARY ETHICS...
https://doi.org/10.1080/15027570.2019.1681584
On a roll this week with review number 2 of Military Virtues from the Strategy Bridge. Very pleased with this one.
Though virtue ethics has waxed and waned as a theory of morality over two millennia, in recent decades, it has become central to many military’s conceptions of military ethics.
Military Virtues receives a good review by The Wavell Room
https://wavellroom.com/2019/10/02/military-ethics-book-review-military-virtues/
For anyone with an interest in military ethics this book is a must. it educates from the point of view of the military virtues and their application.
Thank you Dan. Your words mean a lot.
'I have devoted 20 years to military service in the Special Operations Community. In that time, I have encountered few individuals who exude the same values that military members hold dear. In working with Kirstin Howgate, I found her level of professionalism to set the bar for future endeavors. She is clear and concise, while being caring and courteous to the words that are composed. Kirstin ensured the chapter I contributed was a stimulating and productive experience. You do not have to wear a uniform to serve and Howgate Publishing serves those authors from the front lines with their publishing’s.' Dan Luna, Navy Seal.
This is what it's all about....
'While the challenge of writing is always an edifying experience for me, the key to the overall quality of that endeavor heavily depends upon the author’s engagement with the editors and publishers. In that respect, I can describe my working relationship with Kirstin Howgate as striking the ideal balance of professional and personal. From the beginning, she was clear about the vision, format, and timeline for the project. Furthermore, she was incredibly responsive to my inquiries and provided both timely and courteous reminders that helped keep me on schedule. When I received a copy of the book after publication, I was impressed—but not at all surprised—by the quality of the binding, cover, and print. In sum, my experience with Ms. Howgate and with Howgate Publishing has become the gold standard by which I will set my expectations for a publisher going forward.'
