This book critiques mainstream beliefs about cyberwarfare and forges a new path in the way of defining this largely misunderstood concept. Rather than outlining cyberspace as a new technology applied in military operations, here, Tsirigotis rallies against this technocentric account and establishes how cyberspace, first and foremost, should be categorized as a new way to understand war and military power in the Information Age. Using genre analysis and Corpus Linguistics, the author scrutinizes how cyberspace has changed the way the UK comprehends war and military power, and how the cybernetisation of war has manifested itself in Britain's approach to national defense and security. 

Anthimos Alexandros Tsirigotis is an Air Defence Officer in the Hellenic Air Force. Anthimos has worked extensively on the changing character of war in the information age and currently his research interests fall within Artificial Intelligence and big data.
