Chris Mulder recently reviewed this intriguing book with an attention getting title: Warbot 1.0. It is as Chris says, a captivating science fiction novel set in that future, in 2033 written by West Point and Army War College educated, Brian Michelson. The author also served in the 101st Airborne Division and special operations commands in sites around the globe, including the Philippines—the setting of Warbot 1.0.
In the book, the author introduces, educates, and challenges the reader to consider how emerging technology will alter the dynamics of a future war. He ties together history, current affairs, future challenges related to both emerging technology and China’s ambitions with a scenario in which China invades a regional country in its effort to spread influence. In this case, China invades the Philippines, and, as expected, the United States comes to its rescue.
Chris sums up his findings by quoting from Winston Churchill, “… President Roosevelt told me that he was asking publicly for suggestions about what the war should be called. I said at once ‘The Unnecessary War.’” We need deep thinkers who can prevent and prepare for the next unnecessary war to the maximum extent possible.
