The Changing Face of War by the Editors of Scientific American Advances in technology often concur with times of war—the nuclear bomb is perhaps the most iconic example. The then-new knowledge of nuclear physics and the fear that the Nazis might develop a weapon pushed some of the greatest minds in physics and chemistry to solve one of the most complex technical problems of the day. Their success ushered in a new age; the rules of warfare had to change when a reckless act might end human civilization. In this eBook, The Changing Face of War, we examine the technologies being developed or adapted for war and defense—and what these innovations mean for the way nations (and non-state antagonists) conduct military or security operations. From drones to computer systems to biological and chemical weapons, each advance demands a re-thinking of where the vulnerabilities lie and how severe any collateral damage would be. In Section 1, "Death from the Sky: Drones," author Larry Greenemeier looks at the length and breadth of drone usage while John Villasenor tackles the questions raised about national security and privacy. Vulnerability takes on new meaning in Section 3, "The Cyberwars," as David Nicol illustrates how the Stuxnet worm put a serious dent in Iran's program to enrich uranium in "Hacking the Lights Out." Sections 6 and 7, "Nuclear Weapons" and "Star Wars: Attack from Orbit," respectively, delve more closely into the consequences of collateral damage. In her article "Space War," Theresa Hitchens outlines the downside of nations taking the "high ground" in space, where even testing such weapons could create so much wreckage as to damage or destroy any craft in Earth's orbit. But these questions aren't new. We have powers to destroy that would have awed the ancient conquerors. With luck, we will keep that power under control.

An “insightful” and in-depth look at anti-science politics and its deadly results (Maria Konnikova, New York Times–bestselling author of The Biggest Bluff). Thomas Jefferson said, “Wherever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government.” But what happens when they aren’t? From climate change to vaccinations, transportation to technology, health care to defense, we are in the midst of an unprecedented expansion of scientific progress—and a simultaneous expansion of danger. At the very time we need them most, scientists and the very idea of objective knowledge are being bombarded by a vast, well-funded war on science, and the results are deadly. Whether it’s driven by identity politics, ideology, or industry, the result is an unprecedented erosion of thought in Western democracies as voters, policymakers, and justices actively ignore scientific evidence, leaving major policy decisions to be based more on the demands of the most strident voices. This compelling book investigates the historical, social, philosophical, political, and emotional reasons why evidence-based politics are in decline and authoritarian politics are once again on the rise on both left and right—and provides some compelling solutions to bring us to our collective senses, before it's too late. “If you care about attacks on climate science and the rise of authoritarianism, if you care about biased media coverage and shake-your-head political tomfoolery, this book is for you.”—The Guardian

With the introduction of new technologies in the industrial era, warfare--along with most other areas of life--went through a major change. During the American Civil War and World War I, advances in transportation, communication, and weaponry changed the way wars were fought. In the decades since World War I, warfare has continued to evolve. This title examines the history of modern warfare and how technology shapes war today, exploring topics such as drone warfare, cyberattacks and social media propaganda, and the role chemical weapons, nuclear weapons, and artificial intelligence play in twenty-first century warfare.

No professional group in the United States benefited more from World War II than the scientific community. After the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, scientists enjoyed unprecedented public visibility and political influence as a new elite whose expertise now seemed critical to America's future. But as the United States grew committed to Cold War conflict with the Soviet Union and the ideology of anticommunism came to dominate American politics, scientists faced an increasingly vigorous regimen of security and loyalty clearances as well as the threat of intrusive investigations by the notorious House Committee on Un-American Activities and other government bodies. This book is the first major study of American scientists' encounters with Cold War anticommunism in the decade after World War II. By examining cases of individual scientists subjected to loyalty and security investigations, the organizational response of the scientific community to political attacks, and the relationships between Cold War ideology and postwar science policy, Jessica Wang demonstrates the stifling effects of anticommunist ideology on the politics of science. She exposes the deep divisions over the Cold War within the scientific community and provides a complex story of hard choices, a community in crisis, and roads not taken.
