A tactical‑level study of insurgent warfare, this book analyzes historical and contemporary “ruses” used by Islamic insurgents — from deception, feints, and psychological operations to asymmetric, guerrilla, and irregular‑warfare tactics. It draws on battlefield experiences (notably in Iraq and Afghanistan) and contrasts insurgent methods with conventional military doctrines, aiming to help military personnel better understand and counter unconventional threats. The book has been used as a reference by U.S. military and intelligence readers.
