…新一代的孩子正在被教授老派的生存技能，因为他们以后大概率用得上。关于后核世界，我经常参考的最佳书籍之一是《阿喀琉斯之盾》（The Shield of Achilles），其中一个让我记忆犹新的结论是：企业权力将崛起，民族国家权力将衰落。《搏击俱乐部》（Fight Club）终究是对的……“星巴克星球”实锤了。
…the new generations of children are being taught old school survival skills, because they are probably going to need them. One of the best books on the post nuclear world that I reference often is The Shield of Achilles, and one of the conclusions that sticks with me is that there will be a rise in corporate power and a fall of nation state power. Fight club was right after all... "planet Starbucks" indeed.
…无论如何都很让人开眼界，比如霍华德·津恩（Howard Zinn）的《美国人民史》（A People's History of the United States）。作为一名参战老兵，有两本探讨战争问题的书：克里斯托弗·泰尔曼（Christopher Tyerman）的《上帝的战争：十字军新史》（God's War: A New History of the Crusades），以及菲利普·鲍比特（Philip Bobbitt）的《阿喀琉斯之盾：战争、和平与历史进程》（The Shield of Achilles: War, Peace, and the Course of History，里面关于后核世界中民族国家未来的内容非常棒）。这只是我随口想到的几本重点书。就我个人而言，…
…openers anyway like Howard Zinn's A Peoples History of the United States. As a combat vet a couple that speak to the issue of war are God's War: A New History of the Crusades by Christopher Tyerman and The Shield of Achilles: War, Peace, and the Course of History by Philip Bobbitt (some really good stuff about the future of nation-states in a post nuclear world.) Those are just a few key ones off the top of my head. Personally,…
你读过菲利普·鲍比特（Philip Bobbitt）的书吗？尤其是《阿喀琉斯之盾》（The Shield of Achilles）。他的主题就有点类似这个，但他强调的是技术（可能催生什么样的武器和经济形态）、法律（什么样的国家和目标被认为是合法的）以及战争之间的耦合关系。…
Have you read Philip Bobbitt? esp. "The Shield of Achilles" His theme is something like this, but stressing the coupling between technology (what weapons, and economies, are possible) and law (what states, and what goals, are thought legitimate) and wars. The…
…some are more specific than others (Musashi is actually about swordsmanship specifically, but conflict generally) they all have insightful things to teach. For a broader discussion look at Bobbitt's Shield of Achilles. He still has a significant portion on conflict, however it is also a discussion on the interplay of technology, legal development, and conflict.
Trying to think about the future of warfare and the nation state, I picked up this gem that was hiding in a voluminous tome: The Shield of Achilles: War, Peace, and the Course of History by Philip Bobbitt It had so many implications, especially about the future emergence and dominance of the "market state" that I couldn't stop thinking about Neuromancer…

For example, when thinking about the changing landscape of warfare and politics in a nuclear age, I think you can't find a better book than "The Shield of Achilles" by Phillip Bobbit (if you do let me know). With the latest shift in the military strategy space I suspect lots of Mahan and Corbett are being read right now. It is a mistake to too heavily rely on any…

…有些比其他的更具体（比如《宫本武藏》具体讲的是剑道，但本质上是泛指冲突），但它们都有发人深省的见解。想要更宏观的讨论，可以看看鲍比特的《阿喀琉斯之盾》。他在冲突方面依然着墨甚多，但同时也是在探讨技术、法律演进与冲突之间的相互作用。

在思考未来战争与民族国家走向时，我从这本厚重的巨著中淘到了宝藏：菲利普·鲍比特的《阿喀琉斯之盾：战争、和平与历史进程》。它蕴含的信息量太大了，尤其是关于未来“市场国家（market state）”的兴起与主导地位，让我忍不住一直联想到《神经漫游者》（Neuromancer）……

…确实有很多缺陷）就是《叶隐》（Hagakure）。我还能列举很多。比如，在思考核时代的战争与政治格局变迁时，我觉得你找不到比菲利普·鲍比特的《阿喀琉斯之盾》更好的书了（要是你找到了请告诉我）。随着军事战略领域的最新转向，我怀疑现在很多人都在读马汉（Mahan）和科贝特（Corbett）。过度依赖任何…
