The technological characteristics of drones, together with the law, have been instrumental in expanding warfare in time and space in the counter-terrorism context.

Recenzje

'Twenty-one years since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, one might reasonably ask, 'do we need another book on armed drones?'. The originality and insight yielded by the analysis and research found in this book answers the question: Yes, we need this one.' Nehal Bhuta, Professor of Public International Law, University of Edinburgh
