First sentence: The problem which the present article seeks to address is why, among all the better-known writers on military theory within Western civilization, it is Clausewitz alone whose work appears able to withstand every kind of political, social, economic, and technological change since it was published, and seems to stand fair chance of remaining forever of more than purely historical interest.
