About the book
Jeffrey Friedman argues that political and military leaders systematically underestimate the role of uncertainty and chance in strategic decisions. Through analyses of historical and contemporary wars, the book demonstrates how the illusion of control leads to avoidable disasters and how a better understanding of uncertainty could reshape our approaches to conflict.
