by Malcolm Gladwell · 2021 · 256 pages
The Bomber Mafia examines the development of precision aerial bombing during World War II and the ethical dilemmas of modern warfare. It follows a group of idealistic American military officers who believed technology could make war more humane by targeting infrastructure rather than people. The story explores the conflict between principled strategy and the brutal pragmatism that led to the firebombing of Tokyo.
