It provides the framework of understanding for our approach to combat and to operations. It is the foundation for all of our tactical doctrine. It recognises that the nature of warfare remains constant: it remains visceral and violent, characterised by friction, in which the simplest things become difficult; its outcomes are more often about the effects on peoples’ minds than they are about physical effects; and it is always about politics. This new edition is necessary because the character of conflict has evolved significantly due to the pervasiveness of information.  \nThe context is complex and dynamic. We live and fight in a goldfish bowl. There are few secrets any longer.
