About this ebook
""Mind Games"" explores the profound influence of psychological warfare on military history, arguing that understanding the human mind is as crucial as logistics and weaponry.
It reveals how exploiting fears, biases, and cognitive limitations has consistently provided a strategic advantage in conflicts throughout time.
For instance, calculated displays of force and deception have historically swayed outcomes, demonstrating that battles are often won in the minds of soldiers and commanders before the physical clash.
