Beschreibung

In the years before WWII, some renegade pilots put forth a radical idea. Can we make bombing so accurate that wars could be fought entirely from the air - ending brutal clashes between armies on the ground? This is the story of how that dream was put to the test. In a tale of innovation and obsession, Gladwell asks: what does it mean when technology and best intentions collide in the heat of war? And what is the price of progress? An exploration of one of the grandest obsessions of the 20th century.
