On The Psychology Of Military Incompetence by Norman F. Dixon

medium-paced

4.0

Fascinating read on how authoritarianism in the military is one of the central roots of military incompetence. That thesis obviously has applications far outside the military as well. As a lay person, I'm not educated enough to have strong opinions on this topic, but the case seemed well-argued as a whole, though I <i>will</i> agree with the concerns of other viewers that this is pretty British-focused in the examples it chooses to analyze.

Overall, this was a good read that sparked a lot of thoughts.

Rating: 4 Stars (Very Good).
