The Samurai remain the best known warriors of medieval Japan, but they were by no means the only fighting elite. There were the Ashigaru, who were first recruited to swell army numbers but later became a vital part of any Samurai force. Trained to protect their monasteries, warrior monks were formidable enemies, mastering a range of martial traditions. Finally, the Ninja catered to an increasing demand for spies, informants and assassins, developing the arts of armed and unarmed combat and explosives.

The end of the Cold War led to major reductions in the military might of the former adversaries. Although the United States was reducing its 2.2 million active-duty force to about 1.4 million and a yearly defence budget of $300 billion to about $250 billion, the Clinton administration pledged that this force would remain "the best-equiped, trained, and prepared in the world". The author warned that, unless the US took powerful remedial action, this pledge would not be met. The events of 9/11/2001 and the second Gulf War, put his views, written in 1995, into stark relief
