<p style="font-size:10px;"><b>Andrew Bacevich</b> is a professor of history and international relations at Boston University. He is the author of <i>The Limits of Power</i> and <i>The New American Militarism</i>, and has been published in a wide range of national publications, including <i>The Nation</i>, <i>The Atlantic</i> and the <i>New York Times</i>.

<h3>About the Book</h3>

<p style="font-size:10px;"><b><i>Washington Rules: America's Path to Permanent War</i></b> is a call for Americans to reject the Washington consensus for permanent war. The book is particularly timely now: in December, President Obama has pledged to review his current policy of military escalation in Afghanistan, while the majority of Americans and the majority of House Democrats want him to establish a timetable for military withdrawal.</p>

<br>
Bacevich's new book, <b><i>Washington Rules: America's Path to Permanent War</i></b>, was released August 2nd. <b><i>Washington Rules</i></b> is a call for Americans to reject the Washington consensus for permanent war. Bacevich's call is particularly timely now: in December, President Obama has pledged to review his current policy of military escalation in Afghanistan, while the majority of Americans and the majority of House Democrats want him to establish a timetable for military withdrawal. <br>
<br>
