The United States Department of Defense Law of War Manual: Commentary and Critique provides an irreplaceable resource for any politician, international expert, or military practitioner who wishes to understand the approach taken by the American military in the complex range of modern conflicts.

This book provides unprecedented and precise analysis of the US approach to the most pressing problems in modern wars, including controversies surrounding use of human shields, fighting in urban areas, the use of cyberwar and modern weaponry, expanding understanding of human rights, and the rise of ISIS. This group of authors, including academics and military practitioners, provides a wealth of expertise that demystifies overlapping threads of law and policy amidst the world's seemingly intractable conflicts.

Book Description
"The law of war is part of who we are. George Washington, as Commander in Chief ofthe Continental Army, agreed with his British adversary that the Revolutionary War would be 'carried on agreeable to the rules which humanity formed' and 'to prevent or punish every breach of the rules of war within the sphere of our respective commands.' " --Stephen W. Preston, General Counsel of the Department of Defense, Foreword The laws of war are based on a number of historical international treaties that regulate the conditions for war and the conduct of warring parties. These obligations and other principles of warfare are compiled in this extensive publication, The United States Department of Defense Law of War Manual (2016), which describes the US approach to warfighting for the US military, including commanders, legal practitioners, and other military and civilian personnel. Some other related publications by Cosimo Reports are: Instructions for the Government of Armies of the United States in the Field--The Lieber Code (1863), The Laws and Usages of War at Sea--A Naval War Code (1900), Rules of Land Warfare (1940), Small Wars Manual (1940), and others.
